I finished reading this book some weeks ago, but I’m not quite sure how to exactly review it.. so this post most likely will be quite brief.
3 Para → is a look into the accounts of the 3rd Battalion Parachute Regiment’s deployment in the Helmand Province of Afghanistan. Rather than trying to explain the book in-depth like I have with previous reviews, I found a comment on Amazon → by someone else who also purchased and read it. To be honest, it pretty much sums up my thoughts on the book as well..
“I expected it to be a first hand account where you feel like you are there with the actual soldiers, but this is nothing like that at all. It is all a sort of mix up of whats going on in different places at different times, and is altogether quite confusing to be honest.”
In saying that, it was a reasonably good read. But unfortunately not a must have for the bookshelf.
