About this deal

Believe it or not, there is actually a smaller pocked edition of the book which I also have, but I will come onto that later. Like the previous book on Mossad, this one is also an interesting read that describes many famous Israeli Missions like the Entebbe raid, Munich Olympic massacre retribution- Operation Wrath of God, Mission of Airlift of The Ethiopian Jews- Operation Moses and Soleman, The Six Day war, How Israel bombed the Syrian and Iraqi nuclear reactors. During its launch year two issues were published per month, but due to the comic's increasing popularity this rose to four a month. Former Royal Marine Monty Halls tells the real stories of extraordinary individuals through a period of historic global unrest: from high-profile drug busts at sea, to the Mountain Leaders’ iconic raids in the Falklands; from life-affirming recovery from injury, to ultra-events raising vast sums to support their brethren. There are no repetitions of operations in this book, except for a couple of missions, but even they come across as really enjoyable to go through again.

Gripping and inspiring in equal measure, it was tough to put down and it has an emotional twist at the end that reinforces how important the Corps is is to all that have earned the green beret, and how strong and lasting the bonds are that are formed on the bottom field at the Commando Training Centre. He’s also able to tell stories just seedy enough to keep readers curious, without making them cringe. Namely, I felt that he comes across as having a great deal of empathy, the underlying cause of which is probably a high EQ. I’m a co-founder of the British and Irish Writing Community and our online magazine Bard of the Isles.Military historian Stuart Allan is the curator of the National War Museum of Scotland at Edinburgh Castle, part of National Museums Scotland. As any Commando Dad knows, with the right preparation and planning, anyone can parent with military precision. I live with a dog, two cats, a Belgian warmblood horse who I rode in dressage for many years, and his pasture pal who is a miniature horse. It is a really powerful book because his whole life has gone before him and he knows it's going to come to an end, and he really needs to tell everybody what he's feeling inside, so that's what makes it so amazing. It was an addition to the company's already high-profile comics, such as The Beano and The Dandy, as well as The Victor launched earlier that same year.

Through a truly evocative narrative, the journey of this incredible Unit, from the hills of Burma, through the hardships of the Falklands, to deserts of Iraq and Afghanistan, is brought to life in this story of the Commandos who wear the white lanyard”.Making use of personal testimony and archival photographs, this book captures the remote and rugged atmosphere of the Highlands as experienced by the astonishing men and women who trained there. At its peak in terms of sales, in one month during the 1970s, Commando's comics circulation figures reached 750,000 according to George Low, who began working with Commando in 1963 and retired as editor in 2007. Packed with easy-to-follow advice and Commando Dad Top Tips, this book will teach you how to be the ultimate protector to your newest recruit. His television credits include presenting Channel 4's Journey to the Centre of the Earth (the science behind Jules Verne's novel), Discovery's Rebuilding the Past (an attempt to recreate an Iron Age settlement) and Five's Great Ocean Adventures, for which he was also the author of the accompanying book. Chosen by current Editor George Low, the brilliantly drawn stories in this classic collection range from daring bomber raids over Germany, through close-combat jungle fighting against hard-as-nails Japanese, and depth-charge blasted submarine warfare, to hard-hitting battles across North Africa, Italy and northern Europe.
