This book covers my service with the British Army Third Battalion Parachute Regiment (1987-1999) to moving into the private security industry, initially working in central London; from there, to the International War Crimes Tribunal for the United Nations; after the 2003 invasion of Iraq, as a private security contractor for five years in different security contracts; then completing basic military training at the age of forty-three years old so I could serve with British Army for Operation Herrick 13 in Afghanistan; and finally, into the maritime security sector, where I am still working today.
