A unique & poignant record of a club created for heroes. There are just a handful of men & women alive today who served & fought with the Special Forces during the Second World War. They are a dwindling bunch of veterans in their twilight years whose tales of heroism & daring-do will soon be lost in time forever
- yet they still regularly get together in a gentleman's club, right in the heart of London
- The Special Forces Club. In ten separate & astonishing accounts of ingenuity & heroism, former Sunday Telegraph defence correspondent Sean Rayment visits this unique group of people, & through their vivid memories, transports the reader back in time to the dark days of the Second World War when Britain was again fighting on multiple fronts across the globe. These incredibly heroic tales are taken from men such as Captain John Campbell, MC & Bar & the last surviving officer of ' Popski's Private Army', whose triumph over being wrongly labelled a coward led him to serve with distinction & bravery behind Rommel's lines in North Africa. Balancing the heroism in the field of battle is the story of Noreen Riols, who worked under the legendary Colonel Maurice Buckmaster, helping train operatives in the art of counter-espionage & counter-surveillance, who was used to 'honey trap' would-be agents. Then there is Mike Sadler, who served with David Stirling in the LRDG & took part in an SAS attack on a German airfield near el-Alamein in 1942 in which 34 aircraft were destroyed; & Harry Verlander, who served with the legendary Jedburghs, a highly secret element of the Special Operations Executive, & recalls his service during D-Day & subsequent operations in Burma. The book covers all theatres of operations & provides a unique glimpse into why the members of the Special Forces Club are truly exceptional. Time is running out to capture the myriad of epic stories WWII threw up over its five-year period. In their twilight years, the Special Forces Club has decided to reveal its identity at last.
