Product Description
Review
'The book everyone is talking about' Belfast Telegraph 'A new bestseller... a must for those Interested in the 2nd World War' What's Happening 'Well worth reading. The author is particularly good at explaining why almost all who serve in the Regiment have such a fierce pride in all that it stands for.' The Guards Magazine
Product Description
Since their foundation during the Second World War, the Parachute Regiment has acquired a formidable reputation as tough, fearless soldiers. 'The Red Devils' have played a key role in many of the battles of the past sixty years - the capture of Sicily, the D-Day landing, the heroic but doomed attempt to capture the bridge at Arnhem. In the savage wars of 'peace' since the Second World War, the Paras have seen action all over the world - from Cyprus, Palestine, Egypt, Borneo and the Falklands to Bosnia. Their service in Northern Ireland has been surrounded by controversy - the events of 'Bloody Sunday' in Londonderry in 1972 are still the subject of fierce debate, and a continuing government inquiry. For his authoritative book, John Parker has gathered together the testimony of numerous veterans of the Parachute Regiment. Their first-hand accounts of the major events in their history make enthralling reading, bringing home the reality (and cruelty) of combat in a way no dry, official history could do. The events of 'Bloody Sunday' are seen through their eyes, and will re-ignite the controversy over what actually happened.
