Flying with Cuckoos tells the true story of a journey of discovery, as a young and naive Michael Clark leaves a desperately-unhappy adopted home, to join the armed forces, as a 'boy apprentice' before transferring into one of the most ill-disciplined and disreputable units in the British armed forces. As the story unfolds, we follow his progress; from one-sided battles with school bullies in suburban England, to even-more one-sided battles with the S.A.S. in some of the world's most dangerous and exotic places; from the jungles of South-East Asia, and the bullet-scarred shacks of Gaddafi's 'new' Libya, through the tragedy of the war in Vietnam, and the hedonistic excess of swinging-sixties Bangkok and Singapore. Funny, poignant, and at times outrageous, Flying with Cuckoos is a heart-warming story of hope and achievement, and the remarkable journal of a young man's battle to survive and overcome.
