"Historically, Special Operations Forces (SOF) have been largely in the shadows, not only by the nature of what they do, but also because the conventional military never really accepted them as a mainstream capability. This changed dramatically in the post-9/11 era due to the employment of SOF in the war on terror in Afghanistan, Iraq and throughout the globe. This shift into the light has been exemplified in the Canadian experience. While, importantly, this nation has conducted "special operations" since its inception, many, if not most, Canadians remain unaware of this rich history. We Will Find a Way: The Canadian Special Operations Legacy addresses this deficit by providing a historical glimpse of Canada's special operations experience and, in so doing, helps to expose the foundation of contemporary special operations which are rooted in the achievements of the individuals and organizations that paved their way."
