Step inside real British Army life as we rebuild Psychological Operations from the ground up. In this chapter we show how Kosovo taught us to embed early, select teams six months out, and turn training into an intelligence-led deployment model. Expect true stories of Royal Anglian/Intelligence Corps teamwork, PsyOps planning, Target Audience Analysis, and the nuts-and-bolts reality of MATTs, BFT/CFT, weapons, NBC, and first aid done properly. We take you from Film City (NATO HQ) to a windswept Guernsey camp (PT, rugby on the beach, and radio/leaflet drills), up to Faslane’s Joint Maritime Course (subs, Marines, and rain), then pivot fast as Macedonia ignites—Whitehall briefs, a Danish 3-star, and a PSE loadout rolling through Marchwood bound for Thessaloniki.

If you love authentic military and life stories, this is for you: camaraderie, black humour, smarter training, and how influence—radio, print, face-to-face—saves soldiers and civilians. Fans of rugby, skiing, travel, and postings across Germany in the ’70s, ’80s, ’90s & ’00s will feel right at home.

Subscribe for new chapters packed with NATO operations, SAS/Commando roots, Int Corps craft, and the everyday grit behind the headlines.
