Grenadier Guard. Afghan veteran. One-eyed wonder.
In this explosive episode of The Muster Point Podcast: Beyond the Wire, Stu sits down with Alex Harrison, who survived being shot in the head during Herrick 6 and lived to tell the tale with raw honesty and brutal humour.
From the parade square to Iraq and Kajaki, through the chaos of Mazdarak where his life changed forever, Alex shares the reality of combat, recovery, and the battles with booze, PTSD and identity that followed. We talk survivor’s guilt, the grind of mental health, the power of therapy, and how he rebuilt himself into a content creator, podcaster and stand-up comic.
Alex will also be live at our Remembrance Ball this November with the Veterans Comedy Club, bringing that trademark squaddie banter to a night that mixes reflection with laughter.
This one’s raw, graphic and darkly funny – exactly how veterans tell it. Brew in hand, buckle up: it’s a proper eye-opener.
