Thanks

Capt Pugwash,

That's the one!

Tried Googling various combinations of the bits I could
remember but never had any luck before.

Something Witty.

I had NO idea. (I'm only an ex blanket stacker so why should I know! Cue
various jokes, assorted insults etc...)

That's gone on my reading list as soon as I can find a copy.

IIRC from the early-mid 80's I remember a serious diplomatic
incident with an American Major (I think), from some mission in
East Germany getting shot whilst inside an airbase (recollection
shaky here, please flame gently). 'm guessing it's kind of the same thing but
gone very wrong.

Thanks very very much.

In regards to the Mark Berent books I can't read the bit at the 'O' club with 'Hostletters Holocaust' (Eagle Station I think) without crying with laughter
every time.

That said, they're a very good mixture of sweet and sour.

Regards to all.
