This book made me hate Harry. He describes hurting people in such callous terms (not just his bragging about killing Taliban - and, no matter what he claims, he was bragging- but also incidents like the fireworks in the hole, THAT NO ONE SEEMS TO TALK ABOUT).
Also, his descriptions of his “service” are such a joke. He has no clue what it is like to serve. He missed the entire point of hostile environment training. He describes the favouritism he received without realizing that’s what he is describing.
Plus his lack of insight that the criticism reported is based on his behaviour. Plus his freaking Oedipal Complex. Plus his todger stories. And…
He thinks no one was protecting him, but this book shows the Palace was protecting him from being revealed to the public for the ass he is. Don’t believe me? Read it in his own words.
