All the Queen's Men

This book is the result of my fourteen years as a bandsman in a British cavalry regiment, ending up as a Trumpet Major. Within a year of enlisting, I'd discovered a gay military world and experienced my first gay sex; many squaddies and bandsmen were partial to a bit of cock fun. I was out for most of my career and was at various times protected by both peers and senior ranks. There were no threats and rarely any hostility. I had numerous flirtations and love affairs, and when I got "engaged" to a 16-year-old civilian, my straight friends gave me a party. I learnt much in my army career, of which the most unlikely thing was pride in my sexuality.
