Review: THE BLACK BERETS



The Setting
In the dirty war of covert operations, they were the government's most deadly secret weapon.

The CIA trained them for one thing and one thing only- to kill swiftly, silently and mercilessly. Then it turned them loose on the battlefields of Asia, sending them out on missions so ugly that not even the army could be told.

But now the war was over. Beak, Rosie, Cowboy, Harry and Runt were in limbo until their old CIA control sent them back into the hell of Vietnam in search of a man who should be dead. Could five shell-shocked vets become a combat-honed killing machine again? And,if they could, how long would it be before the CIA acted to stop them, to shut them down-for keeps.

M
y Thoughts
I would not classify this as PA fiction, there is no apocalypse taking place in the story.  This title falls more within the range of Mac Bolan style military adventure.
