Talking with the wounded

Best day of my life; not for the goat.


Listen Later

Formerly in the Blue & Royals, Simon Moloney, a sniper in Afghanistan, becomes the hunted.  After getting shot through the neck, first aid from his team medic, he re-joins the fight - which he is subsequently awarded the Conspicuous Gallantry Cross for.  There were worse days to come on that tour, and long after leaving it all comes back.  If this were a book you wouldn't put it down; and don't spare a thought for the goat!

Simon is also a trustee of a new charity he champions called Head Up - Mental Health Awareness For UK Armed Forces | Head Up (head-up.org.uk)
