Cpl Walter Jones

British Army Raiding Support Regiment

The diary of Walter Jones, Raiding Support Regiment This is the story of Walter Jones's service and the operations of the Raiding Support Regiment. A precursor to the modern SAS the Raiding Support Regiment fought alongside the commandos and Tito's partisan in Yugoslavia. Based on the Island of Vis in the Adriatic they provided heavy weapons support to British and partisan forces trying to drive the Germans out of Yugoslavia. Later they served in Albania and Italy. This is a brutally honest account of one man's service with the Regiment and a neglected period of European history. It documents the transformation of a young man into a combat veteran as he witnesses the effects of bombing, the deliberate killing of POW's and partisan savagery against those who transgress the partisan code. Walter Jones 'Raiding Support Regiment: The Diary of a Special Forces Soldier 1943-45'
