Squaddie by Steven Mclaughlin
Ranging from the realities of basic training to post-war chaos in Iraq and tension in Northern Ireland, this book presents an account of army life. It talks about the fears and anxieties that the modern soldier carries as his burden, as well as the occasional joys and triumphs that can make him feel like he is doing the best job in the world.
"The British Jarhead.. I'd like the entire MoD to read Steven McLaughlin's book" -- Vicki Woods Daily Telegraph "A candid look at life for the average enlisted soldier ... offers a powerful insight into the motivation that drives youngsters to sign up as well as the fear which follows when they realise they're off to Iraq" -- Teri Judd The Independent
