Tom Clancy's Ghost Recon is an American series of
military tactical shooter video games created by
Red Storm Entertainment, the game development studio founded in part by
American author
Tom Clancy.
Ghost Recon has also been
novelized by
Grant Blackwood under the pseudonym
David Michaels.
In the series, the player is in charge of a fictional, newly-conceived
squad of
United States Army Special Forces operators from
Company D, 1st
Battalion,
5th Special Forces Group (5th SFG) stationed at
Fort Bragg,
North Carolina. Except for the "1st Battalion, 5th SFG" designation, this
unit is entirely fictional, as Special Forces Battalions currently only support three Companies (A, B and C). They are sometimes referred to as "the Ghosts". Their role is not unlike other real world
special operations forces, in that their operations are kept highly
classified.
