Combat Frogmen

Almost a month after ordering it, my copy of Combat Frogmen by Michael Welham finally arrived. Thanks to James K over on MWR for bringing attention to this out-of-print book. He scanned some photographs from the book and along with the help of a fellow MWRine posted them on the board. Subsequently, I did some searching and was able to locate a used copy in very fine condition and at a reasonable price sourced from all the way in the UK. Thank you Peter for a smooth and professional transaction. I'll be sure to choose the faster shipping method next time! :-)

This is a Swedish Ranger Combat Swimmer.

Too bad you can't really make out what watch he's wearing.

Unlike another more recent book on combat swimmers, Welham's book doesn't disrespectfully disregard ignore American and British frogmen. There should be no doubt which one I prefer (cough...this one...cough).

The section above talks about US Navy SEALs and UDTs. Time for some excellent reading.
