Recieved my copy yesterday. Interesting stuff.

It confirmed my sightings of Mirage 5's over the UK in the build up, something I've never seen written before. I saw a pair before we deployed and assumed there was some dissimilar ACM going on.

It mentions Jeff Glover, and while i assume hes mentioned once the action starts, I remember meeting him once in my capacity as Guard on the Chater road gate at Witt. Reconising him as the chap who had a dodgy low level rolloing ejection over port Howard (I think) and subsequently captured, I adressed him by name and gave him the best up-1-2-3 salute I've ever done. Very proud I was and still am of his and others efforts. Respect - as they say these days.
