From the time Andy Greenaway was born, he grew up knowing nothing else but life in the British Army. His Father was an Ammunition Technician and bomb disposal expert. Andy travelled with his military parents and lived on bases in Cyprus, Bahrain, Germany, Canada, and every part of England. As a young boy, he would go out onto the ranges with his Father, who would pick up unexploded mortars and other types of dysfunctional ammunition. When the bomb disposal robot was invented, Andy was one of the first to give it a test drive in a workshop at Kineton, the army's Central Ammunition Depot. Andy's Father served in Northern Ireland twice. The first time was during the height of the bombings in 1973. It was a grueling tour and Andy's Father came close to death on several occasions. The senior Greenaway appeared in many documentaries before he passed away. Andy convinced him to write his stories down on paper. They were too important. "The Bomb Man" is the result. It's a unique and gripping thriller that gives the reader an inside look into the machinations of a bomb squad, as well as a feel for the dirty tactics used by the IRA. Andy spent five years writing the book, ensuring its authenticity and operational accuracy. But as far as Andy is concerned, it is more than just a mere book. It's a tribute to the brave men of 321 EOD.
