Sharpe’s Command arrived in Las Vegas today from Amazon UK and on p.105 already!. Discovered Sharpe in the Air University library at Maxwell AFB AL when I was working as an historian there 1983…As an NCO I was wing historian at RAF Lakenheath  71-76..  Got an MA and was finally commissioned as a 2nd Lt–but I didn’t have to save a peer’s life like Sharpe.  But I did retire as a USAF Captain. Like you I was born in London 1947 but emigrated to Phoenix in 1963 I got a green card!. I own virtually all your books. Re-watching Last Kingdom on Netflix. I own all that series too. Thanks so much. Only book I had trouble with is Only Fools & Mortals–but I persevere..

All the best.
