Tell me the feeling when you get your green berry.

It's a different level.

The blood, the sweat, the tears that's gone into that.

One minute I'm doing my commando tests, and then seven weeks later I'm in Afghanistan.

And what was that like going into Afghanistan?

Oh, that one was horrific.

We got Sangin District Centre, one of the most known notorious strongholds for the Taliban in Afghanistan.

Everyone was a bit like, this ain't gonna be a walk in the park.

We took 11 million pounds worth of processed heroin off target

just on one day.

You couldn't walk anywhere

without something going on.

I remember thinking about my kids

and thinking, right, that's it,

I ain't never going home.

And then there's like a little bit

of a hunger in you.

Where you're like, nah, no, no, no. getting put in the ground before we are. What horrific things did you see?
