Just learned that Major Mike Sadler died last week on the 4th at 103 years of age. He was the last surviving founding member of the SAS and the last survivor of the Long Range Desert Group. Rest In Peace, legendary sir.
Many of you may have been introduced to his story through Stephen Knight’s SAS: Rogue Heroes
honestly connor swindells was a perfect casting choice for david stirling in sas rogue heroes, he really nailed the 'looking like he was going to burst into a tantrum any second look' the real guy had going on. unfortunately he was also far too sexy to play that amoral tory wanker
For anyone who hasn't seen Mike's title card with the words "I'm in the mood" sung over it (for some reason the DVD/BluRay and the Amazon (UK) version don't have it) and those of us who just want to watch it again
