520    For his exploits and astuteness, Roland de Vries has 
       rightfully been called the ‘Rommel of the SADF&
       rsquo;. In this forthright, warts-and-all but 
       compassionate autobiography he recounts the fascinating 
       story of the transformation of a small, colonial army into,
       pound-for-pound, the best fighting force on the planet. 
       "Eye of the Firestorm" could be used to enhance the 
       teaching within the military, security and leadership 
       development. In a sense, this is an easy-to-read text book
       with many real-life examples of young leaders and 
       commanders within the domains of the defense and security.
       It is a soldier's life story about how he lived through 
       the South African Border War and the transformation that 
       followed when South Africa became a fully democratic State
       on 27 April - it is also about gaining perspective in 
       life. This book puts in perspective the African way of 
       warfare and expounds about operational concept tactics, 
       terrain, command and leadership displayed from opposing 
       sides. Eye of the Firestorm tells about a free-spirited 
       man who breaches the conventional and challenges the 
       traditional. Roland de Vries believes with a passion that 
       strength lies in the many rhythms of maneuver and by being
       surprisingly different. This book weaves a fabric of 
       richness to life in the military as well as the South 
       African Border War. It covers a military career spanning 
       over 37 years. Expect the unexpected from a man who 
       believes that those who are entrusted to him count and 
       need to be given the best fighting chance in life. That 
       there is hope for the future, that there is always a way 
       and that we can fight our way through any firestorm!
