Description

An adrenalin-fuelled, gritty story of heroism on the frontline in Afghanistan’ – Andy McNab

Unflinching and laced with wry humour, Johnny Mercer’sWe Were Warriorsisan action-packed account of his journey from young commando to a captain with one of the most pressurized and skilled jobs in the army.

A captain in 29 Commando, Johnny Mercer served in the army for twelve years. On his third tour of Afghanistan he was a Joint Fires Controller, with the pressurized job of bringing down artillery and air strikes in close proximity to his own troops. Based in an area of northern Helmand that was riddled with Taliban leaders, he walked into danger with every patrol, determined to protect them. Then one morning, in brutal close quarter combat, everything changed . . .

InWe Were WarriorsJohnny takes us from his commando training to the heat, blood and chaos of battle. With brutal honesty, he describes what it is like to risk your life every day, pushing through the fear that follows watching your friends die. He took the fight back to the enemy with a relentless efficiency that came at a high personal cost. Back in the UK, seeing the inadequate care available for veterans and their families, he was inspired to run for Parliament in the hope he could improve their plight.

‘This is NOT the stereotypical account of war, it’s without doubt the best first hand account in a war zone I’ve ever read.’ Tom Marcus, ex MI5 Surveillance Officer, author ofSoldier, Spy
