Summary
They were like a band of brothers...
In 1983 Andy McNab was assigned to B Squadron, one of the four Sabre Squadrons of the SAS, and within it to Air Troop, otherwise known as SEVEN TROOP.
This is Andy McNab's gripping account of the time he served in the company of a remarkable group of men - from the day, freshly badged, he joined them in the Malayan jungle, to the day, ten years later, that he handed in his sand-coloured beret and started a new life.
The links they forged then bound them inextricably together, but the things they saw and did during that time would take them all to breaking point - and some beyond - in the years that were to follow. He who dares doesn't always win...

Great read / listern
This book gives a great insight into special for es in the 80's and 90's. I listened to the audio version over the period of a week, the narrator did a great job too.

Heavy going but fascinating
Really good book kinda feels like a extended directors cut of Immediate Action by the same author! I’d recommend reading IA first then this book!
I listened to both back to back and thoroughly enjoyed and learnt a lot!

An honest tale
Andy’s warts and all depiction of life in 22 SAS is straightforward and honest. A great insight to the best of the best as well the sadness of, ultimately, many close friends meeting their end.

Brilliant, just brilliant
I thoroughly enjoyed this book . Felt an overwhelming sense of sadness for the amazing friends he lost on the way. However, I got the sense that his success is not only testament to his incredible character but a medium by which all those special people who entered his life can still live on.

Seven troop
Not any easy narrative, to listen to. The reader sounding awkward with a number of sentences and phrases .
The story line is interesting in it own way , but not for the casual listener.

Humanising
Having served 14 years as an infantryman it is refreshing to hear Andy's honest and reflective words about the strengths and fragility of the human mind. it made me laugh, cry, reflect and put into perspective life living with multiple PTSD related issues.
I truly hope that if any young men or women listen to this for the 'guns and glory' stuff, they will take away the most important message.
it isn't a weakness to ask for help, it takes strength to take off the mask and show the real you.
This is the only one of the 500 books I have listened to, that I have awarded 5 stars across the board.
