Sea Harrier Over The Falklands by Commander "Sharkey" Ward, ISBN 9780304355426

> Military Books > Wars Books > Modern Wars Books

Author: Commander "Sharkey" Ward

The Controversial Account of What Really Happened in the South Atlantic Skies

"Sharkey" Ward commanded 801 Naval Air Squadron, HMS "Invincible", was senior Sea Harrier Adviser to the Command, flew over sixty missions and was awarded the DSC. Yet had he followed all his instructions to the letter, Britain might well have lost the Falklands War.

His dramatic first-hand story of the air war in the South Atlantic is also an extraordinary, outspoken account of inter-Service rivalries, bureaucratic interference, and dangerous ignorance of the realities of air combat among many senior commanders. As "Sharkey" Ward reveals, the 801 pilots were fighting not just the enemy, exhaustion, and the hostile weather, but also the prejudice and ignorance of their own side.
