Autorenporträt
Peter McCann is a retired public servant and professed sports tragic. He's also a former Australian Army National Serviceman who served in Vietnam for 12 months (late 1969-late 1970) as an infantry soldier with 8 Battalion (8 RAR). As a member of the battalion's Assault Pioneer Platoon, its main roles were to establish and defend Fire Support Bases, demolish enemy bunker systems, destroy or disarm enemy laid anti-personnel mines and booby traps when engineers weren't available for those tasks, cordon off and search selected civilian centres, carry out search and destroy patrols, reconnaissance in force, and day and night ambushes.The author has a wide interest in military history and military weapons, not just that pertaining to the Vietnam war.
