Alexander Bongartz has dedicated his life to the military, he is a Royal Commando, a Green Beret.
He was one of the first ones in when the war started in Afghanistan and he has spent the past 20 years fighting wars in Afghanistan, Iraq and elsewhere. He explained to me the training, is it like in the movies with the floors scrubbed with a toothbrush? The fears, what goes through your mind when the enemy is outside your camp throwing in grenades to try and kill you? How do you get back to some sort of normal after this? And why on earth do you do this? In his case it was a simple matter of 3 meals and a roof over his head, something he could not always have as a kid in Scotland and Wales. And so much more... https://www.facebook.com/Blablabunker https://www.instagram.com/theblablabunker/ https://www.youtube.com/theblablabunker86 episodes
