There are not too many ‘DIY’ manuals for overseas security contracting, and Jake’s book is a great resource for your career.” — Matt Loe, Feral Jundi

“I am an ex Australian police tactical/CT unit member and have been working in Iraq and Afghanistan since resigning in late 2003.  I worked with the author in Basrah, Iraq, and can attest to his credentials and knowledge of the industry – basically he is the real deal and is writing from a position of considerable knowledge and expertise.  I found this ebook an easy read, just clear and concise, no ego, just really what you should know and do to be a professional in this industry. “
