I've read this book account. A mostly superb account of Fraser's brief time in the line in Burma during World War Two. Great vivid sketches of the army, battle, Slim Gurkhas, Calcutta, the 1945 election. Interspersed the grumpy rants. This one had an epilogue about anniversary of VJ Day and isn't that interesting - more grumpiness about the state of Britain. Still when this is on song it's wonderful.
