    Default Brown water navy

    There is a different perspective on the issue, a book on the Portugese use of naval forces in their colonial wars in Africa, mainly Guinea-Bissau. The author is Jack Cann: http://www.virginia.edu/history/user/257 and the book is:

    The Brown Waters of Africa: Portuguese Riverine Operations, 1961-1974. St. Petersburg, Fla.: Hailer Publishing, 2007.

    Plus try a submitted paper on Portugese COIN: http://council.smallwarsjournal.com/...ead.php?t=5350 and Takedown Ops: http://council.smallwarsjournal.com/...ead.php?t=7144
