Pull up a Sandbag and pass me a lamp is an old forces expression. The
sort of thing you would say to your pals, inviting them to grab a seat and
gather round when you're in the middle of nowhere with nowhere to go and
nothing to do.
Swinging the lamp means to tell a story and the lamp would be
metaphorically passed round as the stories were told.
This story follows the path of a young man who joins the Royal Air Force
Regiment in 1964 and leaves in 1988. None of it is fictional, only the
names have been changed to protect the author!
Pull up a Sandbag and Pass me a Lamp eBook John Harriss
Through the 290 pages, John C Harriss has done an intriguing job ofdescribing the life of a professional soldier (Matt) which in reality
is the author's story of his own 24 years in the Royal Air Force
Regiment. The book takes the reader from his entry into Her Majesty's
service right through four of five theatres of operations, which
includes the Far East and Northern Ireland. The author provides a
detailed account of military activities in these theatres and an
in-depth analysis of their successes and failures. Woven throughout
are many humorous anecdotes of the author's personal military
experiences. It provides the reader with an insight into the workings
of one of Britain's finest fighting forces, the Royal Air Force
Regiment. This book will appeal both to the military, and
non-military reader. It is an easy read and relatively free of
military or technical jargon - a real page turner!

Amusing, RAF Regiment humour, good to while away the time but not a literary masterpiece by any stretch of the imagination.
