Return to Afghanistan Pt3
Well this series becomes more impressive with each episode IMHO. Just to undermine my previous post, part 3 features the Royal Irish and the Afghan National Army, whom they are mentoring. That disarming description is given to walking out from their forward base to meet and engage with a numerically far superior enemy for hours at a time. As Kemp himself acknowledged as "Pierre ze pilote" did some low passes in a show of force, aviation is the key to this war. The speed and accuracy with which support from artillery and air is provided is awesome. Immense heroism, particularly from the ANA who put their own spin on British technique, but mercifully the patrol returns without loss. More highly recommended than ever! Unfortunately it appears that the youtube posting has been pulled, so if you can possibly watch it tonight on Sky 2 do so!
