The years from 1960 until 1980 were probably the height of the 'Cold War' between the USSR and the Western nations, divided by Churchill's famous 'Iron Curtain'. The threat to world peace felt real and the West, in the form of NATO, needed a high-profile quick reaction force to address this threat to any NATO country with a common border with the USSR. The result was the formation, in 1960 of a new Force, the Allied Command Europe (ACE) Multinational Force, Land or AMF(L). In 1967, the Royal Corps of Signals added its first permanent unit to this force and this commitment continued until the disbandment of AMF(L) in 2002. Becoming an Arctic Warrior required each man to undertake specialist survival and winter warfare training in order to be able to fight effectively in extreme and inhospitable conditions. This book is a collection of individual soldiers experiences of serving with this force along the common borders with the USSR, predominantly in Arctic Norway, Turkey and Greece.
