In a fantastic recent article for the Financial Times, Andy McNab talks about his personal experiences embedded with the Afghan National Army:
I’m lying in the dust using a mud wall as cover and overlooking a wide valley in Helmand province, Afghanistan. In front of me, the Afghan National Army is returning fire as the Taliban try to halt their advance south: it is a massive demonstration of firepower. The incoming attack stops immediately, meaning the Taliban fighters are either dead or running for cover. I am taking part in Operation Now Roz (from “nowruz”, meaning “new year” in Dari) the largest, most dangerous and most complex operation the nascent Afghan National Army (ANA) has ever conducted.
Check out the full dispatch and video at the Financial Times website.

Nor has the resulting book been written by a thriller writer with such a strong track record of bestsellers behind him. SAS hero, McNab has used Battlefield 3 as his starting point to write a story that breaks new ground and can’t be found within the game. Displaying all of his trademark grit,authenticity and insight, Battlefield 3: The Russian is a scorching top-of-the-line military and a heart-stopping race against time…
