CAPTAIN PADDY
Captain Paddy an Irishman who has spent 22
of his 54 years in Africa, is the unit’s master mechanic. Just before Port
Harcourt fell to the federals, he scrounged up a convoy of trucks and
liberated—under fire —the entire workshop of the Shell-B.P. refinery there.
When Aba had to be evacuated for lack of ammo, Paddy was one of the last men
out, a machine gun in one hand, a demijohn of wine in the other.
