Thanks to Kindle, most of the above books I have downloaded, inevitably knowing some of the authors personally. Gibson (with whom I am unfamiliar)'s BRIXMIS book I found a bit perplexing. For a "BRIX's" operator he seemed to me to be particularly out of touch regarding essential SA system familiarity at the time, notably SA-8 and SA-10. This is in total contrast to the sterling efforts of Pete Jefferies ( and Kevin Wright) who succeeded in getting MoD to agree to the release of details of a U.K. mission which was classified SECRET , platform TOP SECRET at the time in :
Looking down the Corridors: Allied Aerial Espionage Over East Germany and Berlin, 1945-1990.
(Which I gather is soon to be available in paperback).
