Excellent documentary on the boys in Afghanistan


Recommended Posts

I never realised what they had to go through out there. Young lads, 19 years old getting their legs blown off and fighting the taliban in their own backyard.

I have a new found respect for anyone who fights in the forces.

 

It was saddening to find a lot of them with PTSD and a lot who just couldnt find a job. Thats not right for these highly trained and motivated young men.

 

I salute them all, humbling ;)

It was on BBC3 by the way. If anyone wants to catch it.

Some of them are boys, aren't they? Just nineteen years old. . . Wow

 

Do you think Our Tony will send one of his privileged offspring to the frontlines, or is that honour reserved for working class kids from the North ?
