A propos du livre

À propos de l'auteur

Andy McNab joined the infantry as a boy soldier. In 1984 he was 'badged' as a member of 22 SAS Regiment and was involved in both covert and overt special operations worldwide. During the Gulf War he commanded Bravo Two Zero, a patrol that, in the words of his commanding officer, 'will remain in regimental history for ever'. Awarded both the Distinguished Conduct Medal (DCM) and Military Medal (MM) during his military career, McNab was the British Army's most highly decorated serving soldier when he finally left the SAS in February 1993. He wrote about his experiences in three books: the phenomenal bestseller Bravo Two Zero, Immediate Action and Seven Troop. He is also the author of the bestselling Nick Stone thrillers, several novels for children and a previous Quick Read novel, The Grey Man.. Besides his writing work, he lectures to security and intelligence agencies in both the USA and UK. He is a patron of the Help for Heroes campaign.

À propos de la quatrième de couverture

A short, sharp shot of danger

Afghanistan, 2009. A rifle section is halfway through their six-month tour of duty in Helmand Province. Sixteen men have already been killed. Forty-seven others have been wounded and flown back home.

The last three months have been tough and it shows. Their kit is in a bad way. They are in a bad way. Young men with tans, scruffy beards, peeling noses and lips burnt raw by the Afghan sun. Despite the hardships they are enjoying their time out here learning how to fight the Taleban. The lads are on their way to becoming the best soldiers in the Army.

Last Night, Another Soldier... is the story of four of the young men in this rifle section, partly told from the point of view of eighteen-year-old squaddie, David 'Briggsy' Briggs.
