    Pull up a Sandbag - 2nd review by X-Inf

    We've just had another review posted for PUAS for those who fancy a light read, some born of ARRSE:

    Thanks to X-Inf:

    Good CO. Proud mouthpiece and evil doer of oppressive politic masters. Strives to ensure that you remain a slave and never know the real truth behind your insignificant life.

    Please don't send me PMs - sometimes they'll be in my inbox for weeks! admin@arrse.co.uk and you'll get a decent quick response.

    Good to see GoodCO,

    Many thanks to yourself, AuldYin and Totty for knocking together the review site, it should fill up quite nicely with books over the coming months, I believe there are 14+ books that have been penned by ARRSE Members:

    Armoured Farmer
    In Foreign Fields
    Picking Up the Brass
    Map of Africa
    Pull Up a Sandbag
    Attack State Red
    Winter Warriors
    Our Lad Ricky Series
    A Soldier's Story
    Sniper One
    The Junior Officers' Reading Club
    Medic - Saving Lives From Dunkirk To Afghanistan


    Maybe we even have the authors of:

    Soldier
    Dusty Warriors

    as secret ARRSE Members

    Anyone know of any other books authored by ARRSE Members?

    I believe the idea behind the review site is for any authors/publishers to send their books in for review/adding to the site, not just ARRSE Members and not just military books. What is the title of your book U.M?

    It's a book of (very technical) research papers ... so boring, it's an insomnia cure. More's the pity.

    Arrse cookbook?

    Edited to say - I can't see the reviews, for some reason it's coming up as a grey page. I think it's the work computers though, I will have a look when I get home tonight.

    Was that Gordon Brown's training manual?

    I get that- scroll down and I think it's still there, just a long way down the page.

    It can be used for good or evil.

    Can I suggest you copy my review of Armoured Farmer from the RAC Forum into here and leave a link from the original: it will help consolidate book reviews.

    Cheers

    Drive me closer!
