This is the story of a small unit of the 1st Parachute Brigade during two years of action in Tunisia, Sicily, Italy and finally Arnhem. It is written by a young troop leader of the Brigade who served in all the most important actions and was finally wounded in some of the toughest fighting of World War II. This is one of the best written war stories you will ever read. The perception of important detail is acute, and the author's ability to describe from personal experience the horrors and excitements of the toughest action both graphically and modestly make fascinating reading.
