A first-hand account of the life and combat operations of a member of the unit of South African Special Forces known as ‘Recces’.

Shortly after passing the gruelling SADF's Special Forces selection course in the early 1980s, Koos Stadler joined the Small Teams group at 5 Reconnaissance Regiment. This sub-unit was made up of two-man teams and was responsible for numerous secret and dangerous missions behind enemy lines during the Border War. He was a Small Team operator specialising in reconnaissance for 10 years of his 24 years with Special Forces.
