Quartered Safe Out Here
''Quartered Safe Out Here: A Recollection of the War in Burma'' is a military memoir of World War II written by the author of ''The Flashman Papers'' series of novels George MacDonald Fraser that was first published in 1993.
It describes in graphic and memorable detail Fraser's experiences as a 19-year-old private in The Border Regiment fighting with the British 14th Army against the Imperial Japanese Army during the latter stages of the Burma Campaign in late 1944 and 1945.〔(Stanley Reynolds, "George MacDonald Fraser: He created Harry Flashman, tormentor of Tom Brown turned comical anti-hero", ''The Guardian'', 4 January 2008 ) accessed 23 November 2012〕 This included his participation in the Battle of Meiktila and Mandalay and the Battle of Pokoku and Irrawaddy River operations.
The military historian Sir John Keegan wrote: "There is no doubt that it is one of the great personal memoirs of the Second World War."〔John Keegan, ''The Second World War'' (London, Penguin Books, 2005), p. 79.〕 The book has also been praised by the English author Melvyn Bragg and the American playwright David Mamet.〔(David Mamet, "So near so noir", ''The Guardian'' 9 November 2001 ) accessed 23 November 2012〕
