Críticas:
This hilarious book is a treasure house of memories for all who were in the national service. It also serves as a fascinating picture for all those who were not. Brasso, Blanco and Bull demonstrates the major contribution made by national service in shaping the society of post-war Britain. (Rt Hon Paddy Ashdown, MP)
This book took me back more years than I care to remember. It reminded me of my very first meal as a national serviceman which was steak and kidney pudding and peas which we had to eat with our fingers. (Bernard Cribbins)
More Virgin soldiers just like the ones I remember. This lot made me laugh a lot. (Leslie Thomas, author of The Virgin Soldiers)
I challenge any soldier or ex-soldier not to laugh with the author and his memories, even if he did not see the funny side at the time. (Duke of Westminster in his Introduction to the book.)
A great reminder for those of us that did it, and a great treat for those that didn't. (Windsor Davies)

Tony Thorne - who did it - has put together a no-holds-barred, yet affectionate account of two years spent in Her Majesty's service, where you not only learnt how to defend your country but how to polish your boots till you could see your face in them. While doing perhaps the most serious job of all, the soldiers found time to laugh at themselves, each other and almost everybody else - the anecdotes are fast and furious and always side-splittingly funny.
