In Special Duty, Richard J. Samuels dissects the fascinating history of the intelligence community in Japan. Looking at the impact of shifts in the strategic environment, technological change, and past failures, he probes the reasons why Japan has endured such a roller-coaster ride when it comes to intelligence gathering and analysis, and concludes that the ups and downs of the past century - combined with growing uncertainties in the regional security environment - have convinced Japanese leaders of the critical importance of striking balance between power and insight.  

WWII Operation Jaywick The Canoe Raid on Singapore Harbour In September 1943, fourteen Allied servicemen sailed from Western Australia aboard a small, weathered fishing vessel disguised as an ordinary Japanese coastal boat. Their destination was Singapore—nearly 4,000 kilometres away and deep inside enemy-controlled territory. Their mission seemed almost impossible. After navigating through Japanese-patrolled waters, six men left the vessel Krait in three collapsible canoes. Travelling mainly at night and hiding among remote islands during the day, they paddled towards Singapore Harbour ...

One of the most famous legends in the oral history of the Karen people is that of the Golden Book. It is said that the original father of the peoples of Burma had three sons; a Karen, a Burman and a white boy, who was the youngest. Each son was given a book, but the Burman’s book was eaten by white ants, and the youngest son’s book was eaten by a pig. The Burman began quarrelling with his older Karen brother for possession of his Golden Book, so he entrusted it to the youngest brother, but he sailed off overseas with it. The Karen believed that one day the white son would return from ...

Operation Rimau was the doomed sequel to Operation Jaywick — a Z Special Unit raid from Western Australia into Japanese-occupied Singapore Harbour. Twenty-three men. One stolen junk. One desperate return to the most dangerous harbour in the Pacific War. In September 1944, a British and Australian raiding party left Western Australia aboard HMS Porpoise, bound for one of the boldest covert missions of World War II. Their target was Singapore Harbour — the same enemy stronghold struck the year before by Operation Jaywick and the Krait. This time, the plan was larger, more ambitious, and ...

August 1943. Four guns on a jungle coast. Eighteen days to silence them. And an intelligence package built to get every man on the team killed. Captain Marcus Reyes has done this before — led good men onto a beach on the strength of a plan drawn by someone who would never walk it.

Now the OSS has dropped him and four others into the Central Solomons to destroy a chain of Japanese coastal artillery before the Bougainville landings. ...
