Rreth këtij libri elektronik
A veteran of the British Army’s elite special forces regiment recounts his long career from Selection to the Falklands war, Northern Ireland, and beyond.
Many aspire to serve with the Special Air Service, arguably the world’s most prestigious regiment, but few achieve their aim. In this inspiring memoir, Tony Shaw describes how he left school to embark on a thirty-year military career, including four years in ‘The Regiment’. Against the odds, he rose through the ranks, eventually retiring as a Major.
Initially attached to 22 SAS as a signaler, Shaw volunteered for the grueling test known as ‘Selection’. He was posted to D Squadron Boat Troop with whom he saw active service in the Falklands War, Northern Ireland, and the UK counter-terrorist team.
Shaw’s Falklands War diary offers a gripping account of the action he and his colleagues experienced, including recces, diversionary attacks, raids, and ambushes both on South Georgia and the Falklands Islands. Later he commanded the Royal Signals troop supporting D Squadron, 22 SAS, before commissioning and later on pursuing a second career as a security consultant in various Middle Eastern hotspots.
