Recruited exclusively from the Royal Marines, the oldest and most decorated fighting unit in the world, the men of the Special Boat Service undergo unimaginable training under extreme conditions. To this day, they remain one of the most formidable units in the special forces. The men of the SBS were the first to take position in the Falkland Islands — a full month before the SAS. They were also the first to enter Iraqi territory, well before the launch of the ground offensives, in both Gulf Wars. First Into Action is a first-hand account written from the inside by Duncan Falconer, the youngest recruit ever to join the Special Boat Service. He recounts the unrelenting training — a selection process pushed to the limits of endurance — and reveals for the first time the details of various special operations, counter-terrorist and military, in which he took part in Northern Ireland, Bosnia and the Middle East.
