Description

Former Paratrooper & Pathfinder Tom Blakey answers some tough questions - from fear in combat and surviving Musa Qala, to favourite weapons, military humour, and what it really feels like to be the first man in. Some images and footage in this video are used under fair use principles for the purposes of education, commentary, and historical analysis. We would like to credit the following videos: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tSZABXJScJ4&t=403s https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bKIZR1wjhpE&t=3238s Tom has now re-enlisted into 4 Para as a Platoon Sergeant in B Company 4 Para, heading into an instructional type role. A great inspiration to the younger generation! Another big thanks to Tom for sharing his time, experiences, and insight.
