About this product
Product Information
An insider's account of a covert and elite branch of the British military service. Reveals secret training techniques, weapons and activities of 'The Sixteen'. Details the author's involvement in events during the Middle East crisis of the late '50s Describes top secret missions which involved assassinations made to look like robberies or suicides. In 1957, the author was secretly observed during his National Service basic training and was specifically targeted and selected whilst stationed in the Middle East to become 'Geordie', one of an elite, covert group known only to one another as 'The Sixteen'. After highly specialised training which involved a top secret fear elimination technique, the efficient use of lethal weapons exclusive to the group and unique unarmed combat skills, John Urwin tells for the first time, the role he and 'The Sixteen' played in the Middle East crisis beginning in the late 1950s. His missions included the successful assassination of key figures to protect British Secret Agents. The weapons and military techniques described are not known or adopted by any part of the armed forces including Special Forces Worldwide, the Commandos and the SAS. Told with gripping pace the reader is introduced to the other members of the group as they embark on missions where their secrecy, skills, character and sheer professionalism made them proud to be a part of The Sixteen.

I think this item (which was one of four bought at the same time as part of a special offer) had to be re-despatched. I told them it didn't arrive with the other books so they made arrangements to get it to me ASAP. They said it would be despatched within 48 hours and it was despatched within 24. I had it on my doorstep in 3 days, in very good condition as described. Very happy with the price and the service, highly recommended seller. Very professional.
