Photographer Fred Maroon, who is at work with the Naval Institute on a pictorial book about today's Navy, took this shot of U. S. Navy SEALS landing from their rubber raft. Commander Crossland argues, in the article beginning on page 36, that the United States could profit by much greater use of unconventional naval warfare than it now contemplates.
