"General Frost's story is, in effect, that of the battalion. His tale starts with the Iraq Levies and goes on to the major airborne operations in which he took part -- Bruneval, Tunisia, Sicily, Italy, Arnhem -- and continues with his experiences as a prisoner and the reconstruction of the battalion after the German surrender"--Jacket.
