About this listen

Undergoing training on the Isle of Mugg, Guy Crouchback is now attached to a commando unit where the ministry whisky flows freely and HM Forces have to show proper respect to the Laird. But the comedy of Mugg is followed by the bitterness of Crete: the indignity of withdrawal or surrender.

Told me a lot about how war actually works. Funny but had to reread occasionally to keep up.

Voices and accents by reader are brilliant.
