I'm onto 3 quite obscure books, unfortunately not available in Ebook format:
SAS(Rhodesia): The Men Speak, by Jonathan Pittaway
Selous Scouts: The Men Speak, by Jonathan Pittaway
One Thousand Days with Sirius, The Greenland Sledge Patrol, by Peter Schmidt Mikkelsen
-----
The two Pittaway books are the best references I've found yet on Rhodie SAS and Selous Scouts formation, assessment, training, and operations.....bar none.
The Sirius Patrol book is the only dedicated reference in English I have found regarding this little known Danish specialist unit. These guys operate in pairs with their dog teams for up to 26 uninterrupted months of continuous patrol operations in very remote regions of Greenland.
It reads like the closest thing to operating on another planet I've found yet.
Being a fan of learning about assessment and selection programs around the world, Sirius Patrol sounds like an assessment/selection cross between astronaut and SF.
All 3 highly recommended.
