Drunk Irish SAS Soldier Who Destroyed 100 Aircraft In WW2

Master of stealth, king of sabotage, and SAS legend, Paddy Mayne was a remarkable figure for the Allies during World War II. Feared admirably in North Africa, and admirably feared post-war by the locals at his home, he became one of the most highly decorated soldiers of the war through his daring feats of bravery and unorthodox tactics. He has been often compared to the most elite fighter aces, having himself blown to pieces up to a hundred Bf 109 fighters and Junker-Ju bombers before they could even lift off the ground. Known for his roguish boldness character, he continued to awe through his later war successes in Sicily, Italy and Germany.
