Produktinformationen zu „National Service (ePub)“
Among the countries we served in during our National Service time were the United Kingdom, Europe, West Africa and the Far East. Only Kevin OSullivan saw active service. He describes the shock and the violence of ambushing terrorists while on patrol in Malaya. Michael Crowe in the navy visited more places than anyone and Barry Brown spent eighteen months in multi-cultural and vibrant West Africa travelling in Nigeria and the Gold Coast (Ghana). We all describe varying frustrations with the Services, which we responded to with cynicism and humour. But we all agree that it was an interesting and enjoyable experience and David Russell speaks for all of us when he writes that his understanding of the human condition was broadened enormously.

Kevin O'Sullivan was born in 1938. He was educated at a boarding school in England and then at Cambridge and Yale Universities. His career was in business: he was chairman of a firm of consulting civil engineers working on roads, bridges, urban development, and low-income housing projects worldwide, but particularly in Southeast Asia. Separately he founded, with others, a computer software company in Cambridge which became a pioneer in computer-aided design. His publications include 'Two Studies of the Transafrican Highway' in Proceedings of the Institution of Civil Engineers. He is married to the writer Victoria Glendinning, and lives in London and Dorset.
