Tales from the Special Forces Club

Sean Rayment was the defence correspondent for the Daily Telegraph. He is the author of ‘Bomb Hunters’, following the tours of duty of bomb disposal teams in Afghanistan. His time spent as a captain in 3 Para, plus his various connections throughout the armed services means he can open the doors to these unique veterans from WWII that have been closed to other writers over the years. He will be the first to properly tell their story.

For his veterans served in the Special Forces… [a] brilliant and often deeply moving book.’Sinclair McKay, Sunday Telegraph‘An outstanding book offering a vital insight into the wartime adventures of that small community of Britain's war heroes who rarely speak publicly.’ Chris Hughes, Daily Mirror‘A cracking read, couldn't put it down.’ Neil Chandler, Daily Star Sunday
