Additional Information
As a young Staff Sergeant in the Recces, Jack Greeff became one of the most decorated soldiers in the SADF. Leading two-man reconnaissance patrols deep into enemy held territories and operating under the noses of the enemy, they collected vital strategic information on enemy movements and installations. Using the information gathered, he led raiding parties to the targets to execute what were probably the biggest and most daring acts of sabotage in recent military history.
The first major first-person account of South African special operations written by a former Recce operator, Major Jack Greeff. It is an essential companion to Peter Stiffs The Silent South African Recce operations 1969-1994, the publication of which finally inspired him to put pen to paper. One of the early problems I faced was how to tell the whole truth, Jack Greef says in his foreword. Some operations, until recently, were still classified as Top Secret and have never been acknowledged by the SADF. The problem was solved when Peter Stiffs book, The Silent War came on the shelf where most of the operations were described, some in detail while others were mentioned briefly
