A comprehensive history of Army Air Corps operations through the late 20th and early 21st centuries, detailing aircrew and groundcrew roles, key conflicts, and the corps' emergence as a vital combat arm.
Since formation in 1957 the Army Air Corps has played a prominent role in almost every British Army operation in modern times. Ops Normal is an unrivalled and comprehensive operational history of the Army Air Corps experience. It is a unique insight into the aircraft deployed, and the experiences of the men and women involved.
Volume 2 of Ops Normal continues the Army Air Corp's history through to the twenty-first century, covering a full spectrum of operations. Aircrew and groundcrew provided critical aviation support to the British Army in the most hazardous environments and often under fire. It also captures the emergence of the Corps as a fully fledge combat arm that has become indispensable on the modern battlefield.
Ops Normal Volume 2 covers operations in Northern Ireland, Rhodesia, the Falkland Islands, the Gulf, the Balkans, Sierra Leone, Iraq, Afghanistan and Libya. It uses previously unpublished material, thought-provoking first-hand accounts coupled with contemporary unit records, and many unpublished images. The result is a fresh and compelling history of a Corps that though diminutive in numbers, ranks as one of the most potent in the British army's order of battle.
Ops Normal is the only complete and authorised account of British Army aviation operations undertaken by the Army Air core. It is a fitting tribute to all who wore the sky blue beret and especially those that made the ultimate sacrifice. It is also a testimony to those that survive with the physical and mental scars of their service.
