Nick Wildman served eight years with 21 Special Air Service. Here he tells us the mental story of becoming a pirate & what selection is like for 21 SAS Artist Rifles. Nick is also the founder of Trident Adventure.

Transcript from ‘SAS Trooper We STOLE A Yacht & THREW The CREW OVERBOARD!’

Nick – You’ve been on the go and you’re not really eating or sleeping. Then you’re under the shock of being caught and when you get into this situation, you are stripped down and all the rest of it. I put on these sets of clothes and I just froze for some reason. I was like thinking I’m not meant to, but I’m trying to remember the brief you know? I’m not going to sort of comply anyway, so I I didn’t react and this guy just got hold of me and slung me up against the wall. He pushed me up against the wall and bouncing me off every corner in this room. So I was naked you know and in these sort of stress positions. Either sat cross-legged on the floor or hands above your head and it’s crippling. You’re there for hours and hours.

His book was finished by Robbie and Scotty Greig of The Royal Highland Fusiliers.

Transcript from ‘The Royal Marines Baghdad Cookbook’ podcast

Robbie – It’s actually the brainchild of Al Boyd, who was a former senior NCO in the in the Royal Marines. We worked together in Iraq as contractors. There’s three of us, myself, Al and Scotty Greig. He had this idea for a cookbook with dits and stories about people that he’d come into contact with. From the core and working out in Iraq.

The next thing we knew, he’d written the first chapter and he’d written the first draft of this book. Then Alan, the selfish git, went and died on us, so unfortunately he didn’t get a chance to see it through. Alan passed away in 2013 with leukemia and so I picked up the batton.

Transcript from ‘Loose Change The Film That Awoke A Generation’ podcast

Jason – TV was over because there was no NBC, there’s no Late Night with David Letterman or none of that. No MTV, there’s no sports going on. CNN brought us the first televised war in the first 24-hour news. You saw competitors come in during the Clinton Administration, especially the Lewinsky MSNBC launches and Fox News launches. they’re there now but there’s nothing, literally nothing else on other than the news. We all saw together that Red Cross propaganda special where they were saying they were going to take care of the victims and then they stole all the money.

Veterans’ Anger As Government Deny Suicide Rates #318

Posted on 3 February 20239 February 2023 by Chris Thrall

Veterans’ Anger As Government Deny Suicide Rates

Veterans’ Anger As Government Deny Suicide Rates, features former Royal Marines Commando, Jeff Williams. After a long service in the corps and as a Falklands veteran, Jeff finished his career as a Warrant Officer Class 2.

Transcript from ‘Veterans’ Anger As Government Deny Suicide Rates’ podcast

Jeff – One of our brothers took his life and I was just shocked. As you can probably remember from your service Chris, it was something that was never happened. All of a sudden, a royal marine has commited suicide. I was quite taken back by it, so I did a bit of backroom research. I found out it was more commonplace than I thought, especially in the aftermath of Afghanistan. The toil that that took out of our troops, across the board. I spoke to a few veteran friends and said, you know what’s going on and it seems like we’ve missed something here. There’s a key and it’s really important to the veterans community. On the back of that conversation, myself and Simon Marion started Veterans United Against Suicide.

It’s a group of like-minded people whom want the best for veterans. To try and reduce the losses which are astronomical. We challenge the government to get their viewpoint on it with any statistics that we could tap into. We don’t keep any statistics on veterans, only on the serving side. Once you leave the military, so many people will testify, you lose your identity somewhat. So many people have slipped through the net.

Paul Cardin is a veteran of the Royal Navy and served as a Leading Radio Operator, during the Falklands War. He was stationed on HMS Yarmouth, an anti-submarine frigate, situated in what was known as, ‘Bomb-Alley’. His highly rated book lifts the lid on many events during that conflict and gives thought for some uncomfortable questions.

Transcript from ‘Thatcher’s Falklands Deception?’ podcast

Paul – In 1981 there were riots and there were three million unemployed. There were top economists saying whatever you do, don’t put up taxes and then she did put up taxes. She made everything even worse. So industry and manufacturing was decimated, not decimated straight away but the mines and steel plants closed. There’s all these big major industrial sites closing down and unemployment shooting up. By the end of 81, Mrs Thatcher had a 23 approval rating and that is a record. It’s still the lowest approval rating for any prime minister, even Cameron and May never they went that low.

Transcript from ‘Battle-Scarred To Bushcraft’ podcast

Nick – One of my other roles was to drive a light-skinned Land Rover or a Jackal, which was one of these new-age fancy 6.8 liter super turbocharged engine things. The only downside is that and Land Rover had about this much armor, just two doors armor plated, doors strapped on that finished about sort of shoulder height and that was it. The rest was just, take your chance you know. You’re rolling around in a wadi with a 50 cal barrel inches behind your head.

Posted on 31 January 202231 January 2022 by Chris Thrall

DISGRACED Squaddie To Cannes Film Festival Winner | Bought The T-Shirt LIVE

In this podcast, Chris and Martin talk about war, winning multiple awards and the dangers of Indian building sites. Martin had served in Iraq and been vilified by the national press, for filming an apparant beating of Iraqi youths. The papers didn’t mention that the same youths had been throwing grenades at Martin’s unit for the past few days.

In his film, ‘Diary of a Disgraced Soldier’, Martin tells the whole story of what actually happened in Iraq. Here Chris and Martin chat about war, Indian building sites, Buster Keaton and more.

Transcript from ‘Disgraced Squaddie To Cannes Fim Festival Winner’ podcast

Martin – We’ve just seen it with what we’ve just gone through for the last two years and that’s been mass hypnosis. If you’ve been trained in hypnosis, one could see the mass hypnosis over the last two years. All the subliminal programming and all that stuff, but only seventy percent of the population have gone along with it. When they wake up from it, they’re going to go, ‘Oh my God, how did I believe in it?’ It’s because we’ve been taken in by all these embedded suggestions.
