Outstanding final episode to an outstanding series, dedicated to ALL members of the Armed Forces, "Ordinary people doing an extraordinary job", to which one can only say, Here Here!
They cannot afford self delusion, young as they are. "This is Northern Ireland again, tour after tour. We lost nine on this one, so after six you have to be lucky to come home without a scratch". Kemp calls for far more helicopters, especially for Casevac, more pay especially for the lower ranks, and condemns the need for the guys to buy insurance not provided for them by the MOD, to which one can only say, Here Here!
Well done Vikings you make us proud, and well done Ross and team for putting yourselves in harms way to such a degree. Thank you one and all, well done!
