Faction of a young man growing up to serve in the Army who volunteers to serve in Aden (1964-1966) where his fiancee is serving only to be given the ring back the night he got there. He made a considerable impression on the Senior Officers, including typing all the messages from the General in Command of the Navy, Army and Airforce to Harold Wilson the night Rhodesia declared independence such that he was recommended for a commision by the BGS. Army Commander and the GOC. He also patrolled the streets with no ammunition thanks to Dennis Healey! All the stories are true, but some are more true than others!
