Nefarious in Yemen John Matthew Thompson

Gregg Matthews had served sixteen years in the military, mostly in airborne units. He had been the ultimate soldier until, one day he had a serious run in with a senior officer. This resulted in a Court Martial and a dishonorable discharge. Whilst in London looking for work in personal protection, he met and fell in love with a beautiful Filipino lady. Talia the lady offered him a job as her personal bodyguard. They had many wonderful experiences resulting in Talia becoming pregnant and then they were married. One tragic night the Abu Sayyaf terrorists came after Gregg to use as a hostage, to make Talia's company pay big time. Talia was shot and killed. The Filipino Special Forces asked Gregg if he would like to assist them with Abu Sayyaf and get revenge. There was a very dramatic twist, involving the Philippines Special Forces, American Delta Force in an ambush with Abu Sayaaf. They wiped out fifteen terrorists. Gregg had his revenge. Gregg returned back to UK, but did not take long in finding another job in personal protection with a company based in Dubai. Gregg became involved in a contract the company had, running plant and equipment up the south coast of Yemen for the construction of an airfield to be used for Russian fighters. Yemen was in a turmoil with the north fighting the south and had brought in the Russians. The airfield was on the borders of Yemen and the Oman. This caused great concern to the Omanis who had fought a protracted war with communist rebels coming over from Yemen many years ago, and did not want to get involved again. Britain who are advisors to Oman and assisted in the last conflict decided on an action. Gregg was approached as he was in a position to carry out sabotage on the plant and equipment. Once again a dramatic outcome.
