This week, we're taking a look back at Ant's conversations with former soldiers, who have faced enormous challenges while working as part of the military. First up, Ant's chat with fellow SAS alum and good friend, Ollie Ollerton on his time with the Royal Marine Commandos. Then, elite Navy clearance diver Paul de Gelder on the day a shark attack claimed his hand and leg while working in Sydney Harbour. And finally, Australian soldier Damien Tomlinson on the day an IED caused the amputation of both his legs. These men are the epitome of the military mindset.
