“He was extremely calm under pressure and could out-think the enemy even when the odds were stacked against him and his fighters.”
― A Handful of Hard Men: The SAS and the Battle for Rhodesia
― A Handful of Hard Men: The SAS and the Battle for Rhodesia
“I never fought for racial domination. I fought against a force that I thought would destroy the country I loved. Sadly we soldiers were not allowed to complete our task and I have been proved right. Zimbabwe is a ruined country. This is the truth from my heart.”
― A Handful of Hard Men: The SAS and the Battle for Rhodesia

“A forgotten hero but remembered by us few who served with him and are alive today with wives and children because of one unselfish, remarkable man. We were crazy about this calm, relentless bush-fighter who loved his job and his country; when you look at the evil in the modern world I know we need more people like him. The war is over for us but I, Sergeant Mike West of the C Squadron Rhodesian SAS, want to thank you for your outstanding leadership and devotion to duty and to us, your soldiers; for leading us into battle with the ferocity of a grizzly bear and being a dear friend when we were back in Civvy Street. I know I speak for one and all when I say you are always in our thoughts.” A”
