About This Item
Allen & Unwin, Australia, 2007. Softcover. Very Good Condition. Experience what it was really like on patrol with Australian SAS in the jungles of Borneo and Vietnam. 'On Patrol with the SAS' takes the reader into the heart and soul of the men of the Australian Army's Special Air Services Regiment. It provides a clear insight into the rigours of the SAS selection process, training for war in Papua New Guinea, then in graphic and sometimes raw and brutal detail into combat behind enemy lines in Borneo and South Vietnam. 'It is an engrossing soldier's story. one in which the qualities of the men, their mental, physical and psychological toughness together with their super battlecraft, essential for operating in small teams isolated in the "enemy's backyard", emerge as the key components for their success in these two conflicts' Brigadier Rod Curtis, AMD, MC (Retd) 'McKay has done what few other authors writing about the SAS achieve. He debunks the myths and lets the men who served in the Regiment tell it as it was. My children ask me what it was like to serve with the SAS in South Vietnam: I will give them this book to read.'
