although this isnt one of the best SAS books of alll time the borneo patrolling expreince in phenoemal & is a great read i truly respect peter scholey not only for being in being the best of the best but also for the jokes he & his troops share in the most dangerous situations.
It's a great book, very funny. - By: donnie919@aol.com, 10 Nov 2000 
This book is about the Author's life in the British 22nd Special Air Service. It is writen in a very informal, humorus way, quite amusing to read about some of his escapades in desert & jungle warfare. It gives an amusing insight into the history of the Special Air Service. The author was involved in some of the most dangerous & sensitive operations that the SAS has been involved with, it is very interesting. A must read for anybody interested in the army & the SAS.
A funny, entertaining and intelligent book. - By: , 02 Sep 2000 Most books on the SAS are so full of machismo they make the authors seem laughable. This is different though: a collection of warm, amusing stories, interspersed with real action at the sharp end. To my mind, this is one of the best military memoirs I've read!
A levely and witty account of the SAS - By: , 26 Apr 2000 I would recommend this book to anyone with a fascination for the SAS & a keen sense of the absurd. Scholey is a real storyteller & he reallly has some good ones up his sleeve! A nice change from some books on the SAS which tend to be a TINY bit too testosterone clogged.
hilarious - By: , 21 Dec 1999 Being ex army I found it hilarious how Scholey knocks the stuffing out of the officer class.If ever there was a book that promotes the classless society this is the one.I could not stop laughing at the story about the pigs attacking Robin Letts.I knew Robin in the old days when we served together in the Royal green jackets ,he was my troop officer the sight of the pigs hanging off him must have been the funniest thing you ever saw
