Yes.
But that's actually the third book I've written.
My first two books are The Adventures of Copper, two children's books I wrote when I was inspired by my little sausage dog.
And I think it's so important to find that creative release.

A lot of time for him.
Linked in with him in person in Canberra at a number of events in the lead up to the Royal Commission.

Obviously, his son was killed by Hekmatullah.
And as I've written in my book and said others.
So that happened just, you know, less than 12 hours prior to Merv and Nate from Oscar Platoon being killed by the helicopter rollover.
So five Aussies.
And it was my platoon that got put over to the SAS squadron with...
the troop that Ben was in that then was sent out for the next three days to track down Hekmatullah and stop him from getting to Pakistan.
And when the government said that no conventional forces were allowed outside the wire, only the special forces.
So we had a team of 60 plus our partner force who were meant to cover off on the entire of Afghanistan and stopping this dude getting to Pakistan.
And the government's response and the decisions that were made in his book, Value of Command, and him, Hugh, and his family are just incredible people.
You know, there is so much trauma there, including Hekmatullah, them being released in the Qatar prison swap.
