Pt 2: Billy Billingham, on being an SAS Soldier


Listen Later

In part 2 of this stomp, Dr Alex asks Billy about life as a soldier in the armed forces and the challenges he faced when readjusting back to civilian life.

Billy shares with Dr Alex how his family had to deal with the uncertainty of his tours - recalling the time when a 10 day tour became a 9 month tour without any form of contact or communication, and why his daughter felt like she didn’t ‘know’ her dad until she read his books.

Billy also discusses the treatment of veterans of the British Armed Forces and how we can better support those who have served and their families. 

You can follow Billy here and pick up a copy of ‘Survive to Fight’, his new fiction book that’s based on his life and career.
