    The item, which sir ciff will auction is a book titled 'a special kind of courage'. This is the official story of the british army's most decorated unit - its northern ireland bomb disposal squadron.

    It will be be signed by the present senior ammunition technican of 321 eod sqn.

    I have also asked a friend of mine if she would write a few words on the inside and sign it - a wonderful lady called christina schmid (if you have not heard of her then i suggest you google her name).

    I hope members will agree with me - those two signatures will make the book a bit special (hell, i might just bid on it myself!!)

    here is a link to some info on the book:

    regards,

    £40....

    Come on Gents, the book alone, WITHOUT the two signatures is worth £17.99..

    £40 is a fine offer, but, if you can afford a bit more... please bid for this special book.

    Remember this: Typically, one parcel we send to our troops costs approximately £5.00

    £50 will buy 10 parcels. You only need look at the threads Gary and I have put on here over the years to see just how much the parcels mean to our troops.

    So, please... if you can... dig deep.

    I thank you.

    Cliff.

    You will have just disappointed several members on here.

    For that I am both sorry and exceptionally thankful!

    por nada, especially when it's for the lads. I lost out on the last auction, anyway.

    Just let me know if I win it: someone may be desperate for the book!

    Cliff, as your details could be read by non members too, I've removed them for your safety.

    I hope you understand.
