This book is an account of a soldier's time in the British Army and covers the conflict in Kosovo and the Iraq War. This book offers more than the usual military autobiography as it covers several years of an army career and multiple operations around the world. There is tragedy on the home front as well as on the battlefield. There is humour; however the main theme is that young idealistic men can get caught up in events that spiral out of their control. It drives home the fact that war is indiscriminate and kills the innocent as well as the guilty. It also highlights the problems that ex-service personnel encounter when they leave the forces. This book is aimed at serving and ex-members of the armed forces, and the wider public with a general interest in world affairs. The book ends on a cautionary note. It pushes home the moral that you might be young and idealistic, but the harsh reality of war destroys all ideals and morals.
