The SAS ‘Deniables’
Another topic I knew nothing about…
The SAS ‘Deniables’ is a thrilling and eye-opening account of the covert operations undertaken by a team of Australian Special Air Service (SAS) soldiers during the Vietnam War. Operating out of Thailand, these soldiers were given new names for security and personal safety reasons as they were deployed on missions into Cambodia and other locations where Australian forces were not meant to be seen or heard.
The book details a range of covert operations, including the elimination of Viet Cong munition dumps, the unauthorized attack by US Army helicopters on SAS soldiers, the rescue of French tourists kidnapped by Muslim terrorists in the Philippines, and the intervention in East Timorese terrorist activities sabotaging Australian oil drilling operations in the Timor Sea.
In addition to these international operations, the book also covers the SAS’s involvement in domestic efforts to eliminate Muslim jihadist activities on Australian soil, with the assistance of Israeli intelligence.
Overall, The SAS ‘Deniables’ offers a rare and fascinating glimpse into the covert world of intelligence and special operations, and is a must-read for anyone interested in military history or international relations.
