The Falklands War ended on June 14th 1982, 40 years ago today. I was a part of 3 Commando Brigade Air Squadron at the time, and sailed down there immediately after a 3 month deployment in northern Norway, stopping on the way at Ascension Island, and stooging around the Atlantic Ocean while politicians decided why we were there in the first place. This is a short story of my memories of that time, some good, some bad, some humorous. I was a 22 year old soldier at the time, but many of the tales are still fresh in my mind. It was truly a life forming experience, and not one that you'd want to...

The way I sold high pricetag equipment “Winning a big project was always – and I say again, always – a thrill!” ‘Big Sales’ is a quick guide to what I think is needed to prepare a sales person to take on the ultra-competitive world of capital equipment sales. It is not a ‘quick fix’ or a ‘100% winning formula’ – they simply don’t exist, and if they did, someone would have turned them into a computer algorithm and sales people wouldn’t be needed anymore! The handbook is more about what you need to understand to be successful in sales, a guide to what you will ...

Alex Green is a sergeant in the Special Air Service, part of Britain’s military elite...

Alex Green, SAS soldier. A third fast paced action thriller in the Alex series. “If we don’t stop slaughtering our animals right now, there’ll simply be no wild rhinos left on our planet in a couple of years’ time.” You could have heard a pin drop, the audience hushed, the Kruger Park Ranger totally captivating them with his presentation. “This is not a ‘maybe’, it’s a fact. We must act. It has to stop now.” The lecture over, Alex knew that he had to get involved, to lend his weight to the cause. It wasn’t just the poachers that were the problem, it was the whole ...

Tensions in the Middle...

It all started in Southport, Merseyside, a seventeen-year-old man killing three and injuring ten young girls at a Taylor Swift dance class, his weapon of choice, a kitchen knife. The murders sparked protests and riots around the country, mainly aimed at the Muslim community and the hotels housing illegal immigrants. People were beaten, properties vandalized, and as usual the boys in blue were stuck in the middle of it all. Could things get worse? Of course they could. A small group of people saw the rioting as an opportunity to escalate things to a higher level, to act against the migrants,...

People resist change. Normal is comfortable. With Labour winning the general election, a new Prime Minister takes centre stage, a man with very different values to the outgoing leader. For him, the military and everything close to them are just his new toys, to be used as and when he wishes. In Whitehall, the new Director of Special Forces is a man who likes his sherbets, who has no personal experience of elite soldiering. For him it’s all about who you know, not what you know. Anything for an easy life. For Alex Green and his young family this all becomes too much, and he resigns his ...
