Secret wars have always been an inescapable reality of armed conflict and constitute one of the most subtle and refined forms of military art.

Away from public scrutiny, far from the media and observers, a silent, invisible yet very real war is being permanently waged.

The men who wage it serve within highly specialised units, versed in so-called "unconventional" techniques of warfare that conventional armed forces cannot generally provide, for reasons relating as much to a lack of training or availability as to the sometimes discreet, or even clandestine, nature attached to these particular missions.
