Very good and a lot of details about the British in Helmand.  It is very well written ,and can direct you to other sources. From an American viewpoint, it is good to see a book that shows the British experience in Afghanistan in the 21st century.

    Hell in Helmand...
  

*by H***E on Reviewed in the United States on May 25, 2015*

The British Army and Royal Marines spent eight years in Helmand Province, Afghanistan, as part of NATO's commitment to the International Security and Assistance Force (ISAF).  That commitment remains intensely controversial; author Leigh Neville has consciously restricted his narrative to British tactics and equipment.  The result is a concise and very readable account of Operation Herrick."The British Army in Afghanistan 2006-14" is an Osprey Elite title, just published in 2015.  After a quick introduction to the conflict in Afghanistan, the author focuses down quickly on the British rotational forces and their experiences in Helmand Province.  The approach is chronological, dealing in turn with each of the twenty force rotations through Helmand Province.  UK Special Forces are mentioned but that topic is dealt with in another title.  The narrative sketches each force rotation, the tactics employed against the Taliban, and the equipment used by the troops.  The text is nicely supplemented with photographs, maps, diagrams and a few illustrations.The author is quite blunt about the British military learning curve in battlefield intelligence and tactics, and the challenges of insufficient forces and inadequate equipment.  He does so while recognizing the British Army and Marines generally made the best of a difficult situation.  There is a short summary at the end on innovations in the military vehicles used in the campaign.The Afghanistan campaign is just winding up; it may be years before full and fair-minded historical evaluation is possible.  In the interim, books like this are a concise and readable introduction to the topic. Recommended.
