BBC R4 - George MacDonald Fraser's 'Quartered Safe Out Here'
Abridged and read by George MacDonald Fraser
Produced by Patrick Rayner
Broadcast in ten parts in January, 1995
Coded from tape at 128/44.1

MacDonald Fraser's memoir. A soldier's experience of 1945's Burma campaign.

IMO one of the great memoirs to come out of WWII.

"You may talk o' gin an' beer  
When you're quartered safe out 'ere,  
An' you're sent to penny-fights an' Aldershot it;  
But if it comes to slaughter  
You will do your work on water,          
An' you'll lick the bloomin' boots of 'im that's got it."
Gunga Din - Kipling
