"Ah yes, Suvorov - the general who never lost a battle"
no, no. I mean Victor Suvorov. He was a tanker in the Soviet army, got promoted into military intelligence, and then got promoted up to the GRU. Defected to the British. Wrote a number of books, mostly published in 1987, including Inside the Aquarium (his personal story), inside Spetsnaz (he participated in Spetsnaz exercises as a referee and scorer as part of his GRU training, added a bunch of research to write the book), and inside the GRU.
Oh..I'll look him up. (So many Suvorov's, so little time :))
