In regards to books I just finished "Pathfinder" last night. I thought it was a really good read. I will probably get the author's other book "Maverick One". I'll have to check out "Relentless Strike" as well. Even if the information on Delta is not 100% accurate it might give me some more ideas on how to structure my Joes.
Maverick One is a good read, just be warned though, there's alot of overlap between the books. he repeats some of the same material. Relentless Strike I'd highly recommend. The information he presents is very accurate to some and horrendously over exaggerated and out of date to others, depending on which military forum you go to and how incensed about OPSEC violation they are
For example, he openly confirms the existence of the so called 'funny platoon', once called Operations Support Troop and now called G Squadron. It's made up of Recce Specialists, Snipers, HUMINT collectors and they operate in both official cover (attached to an embassy with legit credentials) and non-official cover (using aliases and general spy stuff). DEVGRU has a similar Squadron called 'Black Team / Squadron'
He describes in detail Delta's aviation arm (E Squadron), their Computer Network Operations cell which started as two shooters (and former SF Communications Sergeants) playing around with hacking and has reportedly grown first into its own Squadron, then its own little sub group within JSOC.
He describes in detail alot of known operations (Neptune Spear, rescue of Capt Phillips, etc) and uses alot of operator's real names. As such he's angered alot within the SMU and SOF communities.
A very good read
