Light shelf wear. Some soiling along bottom edge. Minor corner creasing. Else clean and bright with no inscriptions. Biding firm. ARMY BOMB DISPOSAL operator Paul Wharton served in Northern Ireland on several occasions. This is a factual account of the dangers that operators faced when dealing with improvised explosive devices during that campaign. His account is supported by over 100 photographs. The book also explains how the passive type techniques used in the Hong Kong emergency of the mid 60's were gradually replaced during the Northern Ireland campaign by much more offensive bomb disposal methods and weaponry. This new approach would prove much more effective in dealing with improvised explosive devices and provide greater protection for the operators. The author explains why he believes the 17 Bomb Disposal Operators killed in the Northern Ireland campaign deserve more recognition than they received. Size: 9.75"/7.5".
