An Active Service - Richard Dorney
The Story of a Soldier's Life in the Grenadier Guards & SAS 1935-58

An Active Service traces the story of a young Sid Dowland from civilian life into the tough environment of the Guards Depot in the 1930s and then on to a Guards Service Battalion in London and pre-war Egypt. The outbreak of war finds Sid taking part in the retreat to Dunkirk and then service in North Africa before volunteering for the SAS. Captured after a disastrous raid in Sardinia, he escapes from the Prisoner of War camp in Italy before making it hack to England. The end of the war does not signal peace, as the Guards are sent into action in Palestine and subsequently to the jungles of Malaya, where Sid finds that his SAS experience is in great demand.

Grenadier Grins - John Browne

Short, fun reminiscenses of a life associated with the Grenadier Guards 1956-2006

The essential family spirit of The Regiment is amusingly recalled in a personal
recollection by former Grenadier and Member of Parliament John Browne.
The stories are sometimes funny and often poignant, encompassing days as a
Caterham recruit, battalion life, Churchill's funeral, the TA and Parliament.
With some 45 photographs and cartoons, they recall the flavour of a time already
beginning to fade from view. Some of the tales are based upon outrageous experiences.
Rendered with affection in a witty salute to the Grenadier Guards,
all profits from this edition will be donated to Grenadier Charities,
in celebration of the 350th Anniversary.
