title: SEALS in Vietnam: U.S. Navy Commandos in the Vietnam War
author:  Eric Micheletti 
description: This is a very good book on the SEALs and their experience in the Vietnam war. There are many outstanding photos and plenty of information about the various missions in which they participated in. You get to see the men up close along with their equipment. You get familiar with the territories in which they commonly operated in. How they earned their reputation as "the men with green faces". The SEALs performed very well in a war that was lost politically. --By DRB -<br /><br />SEALs in Vietnam is loaded with excellent historical photos of Navy SEALs and their equipment/weapons used in their work. I was wondering for quite some time whether SEALs were present in the Vietnam War, and now I see they were; in fact, they were in Vietnam as far back as 1962. I haven't finished the book, but am enjoying it. I've noticed misspellings in the book, but the content makes sense, and again, the photos say a lot. --By James A. Traynor

  South-East Asia, the Navy’s SEALs were among the 
  best at taking the war to the guerrilla as they set 
  ambushes along the water supply routes in the 
  Mekong Delta. Note the way this SEAL blends with 
  his environment. Note also his weapon, the Stoner 
  M63A1 Light Machine Gun, much favoured by the 
  SEALs because of its heavy firepower in ambushes
