This isn’t a story about glory. It’s about earning your place… and learning what it really costs to keep it. In Regimental, Steve traces his path from a volatile upbringing into the ranks of the British Army’s Parachute Regiment. With a chip on his shoulder and something to prove, he earns his place the only way that counts, through hardship, discipline, and a willingness to endure what most won’t. Inside the Regiment, life is exactly as unforgiving as its reputation suggests. Brutal training, relentless standards, and a culture built on resilience, loyalty, and dark humour. It’s a world where mistakes are punished instantly, dignity is often optional, and some of the hardest lessons come wrapped in laughter at your own expense.
Told without exaggeration or ego, Steve’s experiences capture both sides of that life, the intensity of soldiering at a high level, and the moments of absurdity, camaraderie, and quiet humility that come with it. But the story doesn’t end when the uniform comes off. Beyond the Regiment lies a different kind of challenge, learning how to live without it. Stripped of structure, identity, and the bonds that defined him, Steve faces the reality of transition, where the skills that once kept him alive don’t always translate, and the hardest battles are often the quiet ones. Grounded, self-aware, and often unexpectedly funny, Regimental is not about glory. It’s about growth, responsibility, loyalty, and the long road from who you were to who you become.
©2023 Steve Brown (P)2023 Steve BrownAnyone who wants an insight into how the experienced military mind works, especially that of a British Paratrooper, then you need to look no further than this book.
For me, I found myself quietly inwardly smiling as Steve read his story as so much of it struck a chord on so many levels - a sometimes difficult and challenging childhood, the shared experience of serving in The Parachute Regiment,(although Steve spent more time in the NAAFI queue than I served for), coping with demons later and being exceptionally uncomfortable initially with that and finally his mindset to modern life, in particular to rude and disrespectful people and coping with crowds.
I’m glad Steve narrated the book himself because what let’s so many military audio books down is that actors or voice artists who have never, (and it’s not their fault), used the terms, acronyms or language of military personnel get things wrong and makes serving or veterans wince.
A book I can’t praise enough.
5 stars all round.
Superb insight into the military mind and The Parachute Regiment.
