During the first Gulf War he commanded Bravo Two Zero, a patrol that, in the words of his commanding officer, ‘will remain in regimental history for ever’.
Awarded both the Distinguished Conduct Medal (DCM) and Military Medal (MM) during his military career.
McNab was the British Army’s most highly decorated serving soldier when he finally left the SAS in February 1993.
He is now the author of ten bestselling thrillers.
BRAVO TWO ZERO
In January 1991
, eight members of the SAS regiment, under the command of Sergeant Andy McNab, embarked upon a top secret mission in Iraq to infiltrate them deep behind enemy lines. Their call sign: ‘Bravo Two Zero’. Within days, their location was compromised. In the fire-fight that followed four men were captured. Three died. Only one escaped. For the survivors the worst was to come when they were tortured with a savagery for which not even their intensive SAS training had prepared them.
