Two very different characters become great friends and live through World War 2. One as a front line soldier in North Africa and later a POW who confronts Rommel's tanks and sets the Germans on the run. The other as a civilian worker in Brisbane. Working at the shipyard and the American air base he sees the war machine up close and has thrills and spills as Brisbane fill up with tens of thousands of US serviceman. Wild brawls, whiskey, women and cultural clashes. Keith becomes a man as his home town gets out of control. Lots of original photos and previously unpublished interviews with veterans. This true story is harrowing but at times hilarious bringing out the true values of Australian mateship","brand":"WoB","offers":[{"title":"US \/ VERY_GOOD \/ SBYB","offer_id":49808909828369,"sku":"CIN0615396801VG","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"US \/ GOOD \/ SBYB","offer_id":50762479304977,"sku":"CIN0615396801G","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"GB \/ VERY_GOOD \/ INTERNAL","offer_id":53449737404689,"sku":"GOR014927004","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0784\/4072\/6801\/files\/0615396801.jpg?v=1751262345"},{"product_id":"and-then-they-all-puked-book-jeff-nichols-9781737274629","title":"And Then They All Puked...","description":"\u003cbr\u003eStricken with a lifelong obsession for offshore fishing, Jeff Nichols had been running part-time charters out of Montauk Harbor, once dubbed \"the sport fishing capital of the world,\" for ten years with mediocre results. Most of the time, he just brought friends out and considered a trip successful if the customers didn't stiff him, walk off with his rods and reels, or puke all over him. He bought cheap, remarkably unsafe boats, and so as to not piss off the other charter boat captains, named his operation \u003ci\u003eSecond Choice Charters\u003c\/i\u003e. Then he started a Groupon\u003ci\u003e \u003c\/i\u003ecampaign to boost his modest, if not pathetic, business\u003ci\u003e.\u003c\/i\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eThe Groupon campaign worked amazingly well, and Jeff quickly became one of the busiest captains in Montauk, sailing twice a day all week long. But unbeknownst to his customers, he was ill-prepared and grossly underqualified for the job despite being a USCG-licensed captain, not to mention that his boats were filthy and not exactly seaworthy. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eThe results were horrific. In the notoriously dangerous waters off Montauk Point, Jeff's escapades resulted in seven Mayday calls and six documented Coast Guard rescues at sea (one including a helicopter). Even though his adventures are sometimes comical, he quickly realizes they are also cautionary tales. Not everyone should be a captain, and the \"6 pack captain's license\" in the wrong hands can be a license to kill. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eJeff Nichols's first book, \u003ci\u003eTrainwreck: My Life as an Idoit\u003c\/i\u003e, was made into a movie by Lions Gate Films under the title, \u003ci\u003eAmerican Loser\u003c\/i\u003e, and his second book, \u003ci\u003eCaught\u003c\/i\u003e, is an eye-opening account of the black market striped bass industry. Jeff has written over the years for \u003ci\u003ePenthouse\u003c\/i\u003e, \u003ci\u003ethe New York Post\u003c\/i\u003e, \u003ci\u003eEasthampton Star\u003c\/i\u003e, and Dans\u003ci\u003e Papers\u003c\/i\u003e.
