Book Description
Jason Rance, an officer in a wartime Gurkha battalion, involved in the deaths or capture of four Malaya-born members of the Indian National Army, returns to Malaya in 1948 in a new Gurkha battalion where he is operationally engaged in fighting the Communist guerillas. The parents of the four dead men find out how Rance was involved with their sons' deaths and plan revenge. Meanwhile, a member of the Chinese Communist party visiting the Malayan Communists decides not to return to China and Rance attempts to extract him from across the Thai border in a fashion that nearly sees him court-martialled. Rance must collaborate with the Temiar, an indegenous people living deep in the Malayan jungle, and only the skill of a Gurkha saves him from being killed by four poisoned blowpipe darts.

Operation Friction 1990-1991
Author: Jean H. Morin
Publisher: Dundurn
ISBN: 1554882567
Category : History
Languages : en
Pages : 324
Book Description
This official account of the crisis in the Persian Gulf traces the Canadian Forces commitment to the Gulf region in response to Iraqi aggression in 1990-1991. Written by two officers who served in the Persian Gulf during the period of hostilities in 1991, this official account is the fruit of four years of detailed research. Based upon their personal experiences, numerous interviews, and unrestricted access to official papers, they have produced a candid account of value for both the military professional and the interested civilian. In January 1991, the Chief of Defence Staff authorized the Director of History to post Major Jean Morin as field historian to the staff of the Commander, Canadian Forces Middle East (Commodore Ken Summers). It was the first time since the Korean War that a historical officer had been posted to the staff of a Canadian commander overseas.
