Yeah, they were basically unheard of when the Embassy Siege happened. Ironically it was this exact operation which thrust them into the public eye.dayarath wrote:

SAS = badass. The siege was a perfect example of a counter-terrorist operation, and how they should be dealt with: double-tap to the chest and one in the head, no survivors, no dead hostages.

Well put, old bean, well put. I read about this thing a while back, apparently one SAS guy got stuck rapelling down the side of the embassy, and when a curtain caught fire b/c of a flashbang, he nearly burned. Fortunatley, one other guy cut him loose, and, despite his minor burns, continued on the operation.FatherTed wrote:

+1 to the SAS!!!
I like pie.
one of the silliest things people do is compare special forces. Honestly, unless any of us have served in SF, I dont think any of us could accurately say which one is best. I write this, my entire life being a Green Beret fan boy. But I have mad respect for all the worlds special services.

Yeah it shows you footage of it happening in the documentary, see part 13 about 4 mins in. The operative who suffered the burns and carried on with the mission was the one who eventually killed the terrorist 'ringleader'.TSI wrote:
