Pathfinder
Pathfinder: A Special Forces Mission Behind Enemy Lines by David Blakeley is a blistering firsthand account of one of the most daring British military operations in modern warfare. In 2003, as coalition forces advanced into Iraq, Captain Blakeley led a team of nine elite Pathfinders—the British Army’s most secretive reconnaissance unit—on a mission so critical it could alter the course of the war.
Dropped fifty miles ahead of U.S. forces, with no backup, no air support, and no rescue, the team found themselves deep in enemy territory, surrounded by thousands of heavily armed troops. What followed was a harrowing fight for survival, told with unflinching honesty and razor-sharp detail. This is the first and only insider account of the Pathfinder Platoon, a unit trained to parachute undetected into hostile zones and operate in total isolation.
Perfect for fans of Bravo Two Zero, military thrillers, and real-life special forces exploits, Pathfinder is a pulse-pounding tribute to courage, grit, and the razor-thin line between mission success and disaster.
