General William Caldwell when introducing the US Army's new manual, tells of how there is now great emphasis on the need to win 'Hearts & Minds.' This is exactly the policy adopted by General Templar, High Commissioner and Director of Operations, guiding Malaya towards Independence, and the defeat of a Communist Terrorist Chinese trained army of over 5,000. His story in this book revolves around the unique, even if small, contribution made by an independent 4-gun troop of 93 (Le Cateau) Battery, Royal Artillery, whilst serving our 'Supremo, ' whose policy became the envy of many US politicians, worried by events in Vietnam.
