Modern & contemporary fiction (post c 1945)
"Officers and Gentlemen" is the second part of Waugh's "Sword of Honour" Trilogy, considered by many to be the finest series of novels on World War Two.
Undergoing training on the Isle of Mugg, Guy Crouchback is now attached to a commando unit where the ministry whisky flows freely and HM Forces have to show proper respect to the Laird. But the comedy of Mugg is followed by the bitterness of Crete: the indignity of withdrawal or surrender.
