Title: 
'Worst Fears Confirmed'
The history of Intelligence Corps Airborne Units and the Intelligence Gathering & Security Measures Employed for British Airborne Operations.

Recommended by Dick Foulger

Author: 
S/Sgt Graeme Deeley, Int Corps, (Who just happens to be the Son-in-Law of Dick Foulger), a serving soldier in ABF.
Price: £18.99 which includes p&p. Available by e-mail on : actionstations-readon@hotmail.co.uk

The book has been seven years in the research/writing and is an in-depth history of Int Corps and Int gathering in ABF, from the start of ABF to the present. Those of you who have served in ABF, either as Regulars, TA or National Service, will recognise many of the situations mentioned. Excellent reading and will keep you enthralled for hours!
The picture on the front cover of the book is that of (Then) Capt John Killick, Int Corps, the commander of 89 (Airborne) Field Security Unit, in a street in Arnhem, during the battle. He was trying to round up his unit and was looking, particularly, for Cpl Maybury. Cpl Maybury was in fact, in a school house not far from where this picture was taken. He had been badly wounded and was being attended by a local doctor and nurse - who were later shot - but unfortunately, he died of his wounds. (It's all in the book!) 

Capt Killick later became Lt. Gen Sir John Killick, Ambassador to USSR and later, to NATO. He died recently and there is an obituary in the Pegasus Journal.
