This is real boys own stuff. What a story, if only it were true, which sadly the majority is not. If you like the old commando comics then this and Andy Mcnab's stuff will be right up your ally. But if you prefer to read about real heroics then go for some of the other books recounting the stories of our troops on HERRICK 5.
How do I know it's not true, well being in the AAC gives you an inside track.

Ed Macy describes his (many) experiences in the British Army / mainly Army Air Corps in superb detail (with the help of Tom Newton Dunn - defence correspondent for The Sun newspaper). The role and dedication of an Apache attack helicopter pilot / gunner is brought to life in scintillating style. This really is a cracking read - I cannot recommend it highly enough. Action packed, emotionally descriptive and technologically fascinating.

I am a 14 year old teen who really doesn't like reading, but once I read the first page of this book I couldn't put it down and I was genuinely sad when I finished it.
As well as giving 1st hand accounts of real missions in the apache, it brings life in the army to life, from how the Apache works to why they gave all the apaches the names of famous porn stars!
This book brought everything to life so well that when I finished it I really felt like I was missing the people from the book. It really puts you into the cockpit.
10/10 - 100/100 - 1000/1000 - This book it quality - read it.
