Our guest on Pod #013 is Danny Kay.  On this episode we talk with Danny about the contemporary STA patrols selection course and how it changed in the early 90s to accommodate the move from the Cold War "stay behind" role to meet new operational challenges.  We also discuss the attachment of chief instructors from 22 SAS and how they influenced training over the years.

 We finish with Danny's book choice on Desert Island dits Operation Snakebite by Stephen Grey.  His film choice is Saving Private Ryan.  The teams book choices this episode are 18 Platoon by Sydney Jary and SAS Phantoms Of The Jungle by DM Horner.
