This review is from: No Picnic: 3 Commando Brigade in the South Atlantic : 1982 (Hardcover)

No Picinic is a first person account of the battle for Falkland Islands...written in depth by the commander of 3 Commando .
Which makes it a "winner". Julian Thompson is an excellent and makes this book a true refernace book. A must have a must read...it is one of the "rare books" that take you into the battle. Something you wont forget! A must!
