My Bags Are In The Back

Born in 1943, a life in the military had always interested Peter Galloway. Influenced in no small part by the rest of his family, a young Peter signed up for the Royal Navy in 1961 without fully knowing what he was letting himself in for. Initially joining as an Engineering Officer at a Naval College in Dartmouth, Peter chronicles the most transformative moments of his military career, beginning with his adventurous care-free days as a bright-eyed trainee right up until his position as a Captain with immense responsibility decades later. With a wealth of experience and an intimate knowledge of naval life, Peter's journey through the ranks of the Royal Navy is candidly recalled in the pages of his new memoir. Told through a series of anecdotes, every facet of serving in the military is covered as Peter reminisces on his extremely accomplished career. With tales that are educational, informative, and, when the high demands of military life would allow, even quite funny, over thirty years of noble service is contemplated in Galloway's essential book, My Bags Are In The Back. Perfect for anyone interested in what military life is really like (or those just looking for a couple of cheeky stories from a time long since passed), Peter Galloway's decades of experience are touchingly brought to life in his career-spanning new memoir, My Bags Are In The Back.
