Special Air Service (SAS) is a special forces unit of the British Army, founded in 1941 by David Stirling.
==History==
The Special Air Service traces its origins to 1941 and the Second World War; they took part in many conflicts since then - they fought in the Korean War against the Commie forces, and during the Malayan Emergency, where they fough against local communists; they also took part in the Soviet–Afghan War and trained the Afghan Mujahideen. SAS gained fame and recognition worldwide after its televised rescue of all but two of the hostages held during the 1980 Iranian Embassy siege. Finally, the Special Air Service fought communists for the last time during the Third World War, with one of it's members, Vernon Dudley heroically dying when trying to kill Kim Il Sung, the dictator of North Korea alongside Martin MacDonald.
