Transcript from ‘SAS Parachuting Into The South Atlantic’
Bob – So that was The Falklands and two years before that, we had The Iranian Embassy seige in London. I was on the top floor going in from the roof. It’s all part of being in a team. I had the job of lowering the explosives over the stairwell. If anybody watches the Iranian Embassy BBC clip on Youtube, there’s a big explosion and then there’s some journalists saying, ‘That was a bomb’. Then you then see the lads climbing out. You know, the four lads of the 30,000 that climbed out onto the balcony.

History Bro Discusses The Falklands Conflict | Podcast #155
A chat with one of the channel’s biggest supporters, History Bro, about the Falklands Conflict – or was it a war? We discuss. History Bro’s YouTube channel: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCEwYhrka7Je0ZASriyDWmyQ
History Bro | The Falklands Conflict
I chat with one of the channel’s biggest supporters, History Bro, about the Falklands Conflict. Or was it a war? We discuss.
Transcript from ‘History Bro The Falklands Conflict’
C – History Bro how are you?
HB – Hi Mr Thrall it’s a pleasure to have a bit of your time, I really appreciate it. If we could talk about the Falklands a bit, is that what we’ve got on the docket today?
C – You can see just by looking at your channel and for everybody watching I suggest you do, you’ve got a fairly in depth understanding of history, compared to someone like myself and I think we could talk forever, but shall we talk about the Falklands?
HB – Yeah, I would really like to, it’s one of things when I first got in touch with you that really sprung to mind, with of course your history with the Royal Marines. Just to put it in a bit of context I’d like to say early on that neither of us where there if anyone’s under any weird idea. |I wasn’t even one years old, I was born in 1981 and I hadn’t even had my first birthday when the action went down on the Falklands there. I imagine you were ten or twelve at the time, that sort of age but it’s part of your regimental history.

SAS Legend On The Fight For Goose Green | #150
SAS Legend On The Fight For Goose Green.
SAS Legend On The Fight For Goose Green
Nigel ‘Spud’ Ely’s soldiering career in the Parachute Regiment, the SAS, as a Military Consultant and as a War Photojournalist has taken him in to some of the most high-octane battles of the modern era. From Northern Ireland, the Falklands, to Africa, Afghanistan and Iraq, Spud has been in the thick of the most ferocious battles of modern times. He writes with passion, pace and the knowledge of someone who’s seen it and done it; because he has.
Transcript from ‘SAS Legend On The Fight For Goose Green’ podcast
Chris and Nigel
C – So Spud, is there something that makes people stay around Hereford after they’ve served.
N – Umm, no, well I love it. I’m a city boy and I’m a country boy, but I wouldn’t say there’s much to keep the lads around here. As a percentage I guess there’s very few of us who live here. Most of the guys move back home or overseas. I mean the camp is only five miles away from me as the crow flies, from my place. It’s nine miles away and I’m on the flight path to the Beacons, I get a lot of air traffic sometimes, but they don’t fly low enough for me. They always stay up high and I think they should get a bit of low level training!
C – So Spud, how old were you when you joined the parachute regiment, did you join the paras first?
