RED ONE A Bomb Disposal Expert On The Front Line
Captain Kevin Ivison GM
ISBN 978-0-297-86055-6

"This is a true story of how a young bomb disposal officer in Iraq won a george medal-and started to lose control of his mind."

I found this book was one of those i couldnt put down,it follows Capt Ivison through his military career into Iraq and finally the living hell that is now called PTSD.

Looks like a great book to me. Spotter, is that just a UK book or might it be possible to get it in the USA?
 
I saw one in a second hand shop and went back about a month later, it was still there so is now in my collection!
 
Finally got round to getting this from the library. I have a couple of chapters left to read, but I must say.....what a fantastic read so far. The Captain comes across as a REALLY genuine and nice guy. I have had to fight with myself to put it down at night through fear of oversleeping for an early turn.

Does anyone know Captain IVISON?
