Corps history book recommendation

[Big Boy Pants]

Hi, can anyone recommend a reputable and up-to-date book for this. See loads of books on Amazon but don't know what's good. Don't trust the reviews there. A lot of misinformation online. Surely there must be one.

Have you had a look at the factsheet we have via the links above? Simply scroll across and select “factsheet”

Thanks, I didn't notice that. Excuse my ignorance

You get given one in training or at least that’s how it was when I was there and that was only two years ago

If he’s still bothered I’ll post him my copy that I have from training it’s still kicking about in a repack box somewhere I think
