An unforgettable personal account of fighting with the Commandos in World War Two.

An ideal book for fans of Andy McNab, Robert O'Neill or Marcus Luttrell.

For Peter Young the Second World War was a truly global conflict. From Norway to Northern France, Italy to Burma, Young rose through the ranks of the commandos to become a brigadier, commanding the 1st Commando Brigade by the end of the war.

Storm from the Sea charts Young's journey through World War Two, with captivating accounts of the raids at Lofoten, Vaagso and Dieppe with the famous 3 Commando. Young uncovers how the Commandos with their impeccable training and camaraderie were able to overcome Nazi forces in Sicily and Italy before they joined with the 1st Special Service Brigade for the liberation of France.

Peter Young's memoir is an enthralling, first-hand account of his time spent fighting with the Commandos during World War Two. It should be essential reading for all interested in one of the most important special forces in military history.

readers interested in a combat narrative will find that Storm from the Sea makes a welcome addition to their libraries. Maj. James Gates, USAF, Air & Space Power Journal

As Storm from the Sea reveals, Peter was in his element in the Commandos during the Second World War. ... Apart from battlefield courage to an unusual degree, he had the rare ability to think quickly - as if from first principles - in military situations. That intelligence and common sense, together with his bravery, robustness, sense of humour and personality, live again in these stirring pages. John Adair
