I hope that when you say "Lucky boy", you say it without any jealousy. Maybe the chance of writing a book has rather been presented to him than him having to fight for it. It doesn't matter. He did write the book and it is a good book. So, lucky us that we can read it and get some inside.

Oxbridge educated public schoolboy joins the Grenadier Guards, enjoys some mild posturing on public duties in London followed by short tours in the Balkans and Iraq and a rather longer stint as an infantry platoon commander in Afghanistan. One amongst many, with just a subtle difference. Unlike most young officers, Paddy has a friend at the Times Literary Review, for which he writes a couple of articles and is invited to produce the topical 'book from the front line'. Ker-chingg! Lucky boy.
