Matthew Marsden - Black Hawk Down, Rambo - Everyone should read this book. It will make you appreciate the freedom and peace we have at home, by understanding what our men and women in uniform sacrifice.
Piers Morgan - Very Powerful book about the reality of war for so many brave soldiers, raising important questions about how we treat our wounded men & women when they return from fighting for our country.
About this book
The story is powerfully written and immediately takes you on a journey through the eyes of a young man whom had joined the Armed Forces at a very young age and served almost 12 years in a career that saw him lose nine friends inside the first nine years of a tragic career. Anthony had witnessed many of his friends die at the hands of the enemy, memories that would come back to haunt him later on in life.
Anthony, served on Military Operations in Kosovo, Iraq and Afghanistan and was hospitalised twice. During a bloody tour of Iraq in 2007, Anthony found himself in hospital for 8 days with a drip in both arms. Then, just two years later and whilst in Afghanistan, he was blown up twice. After the first IED Anthony continued to lead by example on the front-line unknowingly suffering from a broken neck and surviving on just pain killers after being medically misdiagnosed on the ground.
The second IED just over a month later almost claimed Anthony’s life. He died in the air above Helmand Province onboard a military helicopter and became the first British soldier serving in Afghanistan to be surgically operated on whilst still in the air. Anthony suffered serious life changing injuries which included a Traumatic brain injury, spinal damage, a ruptured spleen and a broken neck.
Due to the poor aftercare and management from Anthony’s former regiment, alongside some Military Charities, local government services, Anthony found himself alone, unable to walk and confined to his living room reliving the deaths of his friends and the years of horrific visions and memories that he just wanted to forget.
It is not about blame or regret, it's about change.
