Dec 19, AM. Years ago I read a history of the SAS that was brilliant. Not at all thriller-ish. None of this macho, gung-ho nonsense, just a very interesting history which gave a lot of insight into the nature of post colonial British wars and military actions. I can't recall the author and can't find the book online. Any ideas? I have an idea that the name was a bit on the bland side, like "Dan Jones" or something. May 24, AM. Add a reference: Book Author.

What makes a warrior? In this action-packed book, acclaimed SAS soldier Keith Fennell recounts his development as a soldier and as a man, revealing the challenges he overcame in order to perform at the highest level. The Viet Cong main forces units had a series of bases in the jungle, and the political cadres controlled most of the villages.
Arriving in Phoc Tuy province, the Australians found they had to build their camp in the middle of wet season, which had turned the ground into a mud-bath. They were also compelled to build in the heart of an enemy-dominated region while living under ponchos and being constantly sniped at. The Aussies were still working under these appalling conditions when three members of the legendary 22 SAS arrived secretly from Bradbury Lines, Hereford, to give assistance in what was to be a major assault against the Viet Cong.
The presence of the British SAS among the proud Australians, initially a source of resentment and conflict, eventually led to mutual respect.
