    Fraser...

    Doc,

    Check out the MacAulsan series:

    "The General Danced at Dawn"
    "MacAulsan in the Rough"
    The Shiek and the Dustbin

    It's a fictionalized account of GMF's time in the post-WWII Gordon Highlanders.

    Also check out his memoir of his service in Burma suring WWII with the Border Regiment, "Quartered Safe Out Here" -- but be forewarned about the very thick "Geordie" accents! :mrgreen:

    Cheers,

    Todd

    Have read and greatly enjoyed The General Danced at Dawn.

    BTW, for those not familiar with Private MacAulsan, imagine a dirty Gomer Pyle with a bad attitude. Private MacAulsan, The Dirtiest Soldier in the British Army!
