In July, 1967, the First Battalion of the Argyll and Sutherland Highlanders under Mitchell's command with great skill gained control of the Arab city of Crater in Aden, which had fallen into the hands of armed police mutineers and terrorists, and so inspired a renewal of faith in British arms and courage. Within a few moths the Government had decided to disband the Regiment, and Mitchell had retired from the Army.
