Yes, find the book 'Inside Delta Force' by Eric Haney, its a good read, and the TV series "The Unit" is (very very) roughly based on it.

Used to be from 1893 to 1946, was cancelled to overcome suspicion and alerts in senate, they wanted to know about comunism so action was not shown until released into library. They went into Italy twice and once in Germany, so I know. They released prisoners and effected rescues and scale murders. Much apreciated after canceled. Everyone likes a hero.
