Gone Fission: The Untold Story of Operation Sunfire - by Dr Anthony Po, Colonel (retired), US Army Special Forces. [This from the hardback edition dustcover] The never-before-published, true account of how a NATO special operations taskforce was assembled and led by the author, then-Major Anthony Po, to insert, deploy and detonate the last known nuclear strike of the Twilight War, resulting in the utter destruction of the Warsaw Pact's Reserve Front Headquarters in Lublin, Poland in October of 2000. Failure was never an option. Gritty, personal and frank; a triumph of the human spirit.
[Closer to the truth] Published in the months leading up to the 2024 Presidential election as an ill-concealed propaganda piece designed to bolster Anthony Po's presidential bid. Key elements of the narrative were hotly disputed by several of the surviving members of SOG 1, Team Alpha following the book's publishing (including suggestions that evidence of war crimes and crimes against humanity were omitted in the final draft).
