About the book

This is the remarkable story of the most decorated company in the history of the Irish Defence Forces, 'A' Company. Under the flag of the United Nations, 'A' Company's actions in the Congo resulted in heavy caualties and 14 Distinguished Service medals awarded to members of the company, two posthumously. Covering the seize and hold operation to take control of a crucial approach to Elizabeth Town in very hostile conditions, this book offers a fascinating insight into the actions of 'A' Company.
