THE GUERILLA FACTORY<br />

SCHWALM, TONY<br />

Skylight Books – Hotlist Fall 2012<br />

The Navy has the SEALs and the Army has the Green Berets. They are masters of counterinsurgency warfare,<br />

trained to immerse themselves in hostile territory, sleeping near their enemies and building relationships with<br />

people who want to kill them. In this book, retired lieutenant colonel Tony Schwalm takes readers behind the<br />

scenes of the legendary camp in the North Carolina woods, which all Special Forces soldiers must pass before<br />

they can become leaders in this brotherhood of unconventional warriors. The Special Forces Qualification<br />

Course, also known as the Q Course, is infamous in the U.S. Army. It transforms conventional soldiers, with<br />

blood, sweat, and tears, into unconventional guerrillas. As a young soldier, the author earned his Green Beret<br />

there. Later, he was the commander of Special Forces officer training at Fort Bragg, evaluating and redesigning<br />

the crucible in which leaders face brutal tests of physical strength, stamina, and wits, and where men are pushed<br />

to the point of hallucination, walk until their feet are bloody, and fight packs of angry dogs with nothing but a<br />

rubber rifle.<br />
