Eighteen years later he was commissioned into the British Army as an infantry officer. Forty years later he relinquished that commission and at that time he was employed as a Reservist officer in the Intelligence Corps. In the intervening years he served as a contract infantry officer in the Zambia Army, the Sultan of Oman's Armed Forces and the Dubai Defence Force, as well as in the British reserve forces. He qualified as a parachutist, as a mortar and anti-tank officer and colloquially in four languages, ending his military career as a human intelligence specialist having served in that capacity in Central America and the Balkans. This last employment led to his admission as a Member of the Order of the British Empire (MBE), Military Division. The high point of his military life was in the early 1970s when he commanded a rifle company of Baluch soldiers, also serving on contract, in the Dhofar Campaign that was being waged in the south of the Sultanate of Oman. He writes for several military journals and has recently co-authored a book that describes the impact on and the military activities of the Naga tribe of north-eastern India during the 1944 Battle of Kohima. He is also the author of the book titled 'Sideshows of the Indian Army in World War 1'. Tab Content 6Author Website:Countries AvailableAll regions |
