Penguin Classics Officers and Gentlemen Guy Crouchback is now attached to a Commando unit undergoing training on the Hebridean Isle of Mugg, where the whisky flows freely and HM forces have to show proper respect for the omnipotent Laird. But the high comedy of Mugg is followed by the bitterness of Crete - and the chaos and indignity of a total withdrawal or surrender. `Officers and Gentlemen` is the second volume of Waugh"s trilogy, `Sword of Honour`, which chronicles the fortunes of Guy Crouchback.
