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
