Strategic Services by Phil Ward
Nazi's need industrial diamonds for precision instruments and to harden tools. Germany has an eight month supply. Hitler can only get more diamonds if DeBeers Diamonds supplies them through Switzerland. Raiding Forces has been tasked with shutting down Nazi diamond buying. Meanwhile, Col.

Randal leads a party of the 10th Ranger Battalion up a 12 mile river onboard the destroyer US Dallas to capture the Port Layety airfield in one of the most daring operations of WI.
