Baghdad 2003:
Flt Lt Melchett - we think we’ve lost a couple of Land Rovers and their pax somewhere up in the Sunni Triangle. They were due at Taji an hour ago and haven’t been in comms. Go and find them, there’s a good chap,
Me… ‘oh fxxk.’ My orders brief - Cpl, go and sign out more ammo. How much? As much as they’ll let you take - try the US armoury, they don’t ask too many questions.
