Heroes of Helmand 1/3 BBC 2008 The first Battalion of the Royal Anglian Regiment endured six months of hell in Helmand Province, Afghanistan. Nine men were killed and scores more were wounded. This is the story of those six months and of the heroism of two soldiers among many, one who survived and the other who was wounded and died. Using dramatic combat footage shot by the men themselves, the film unfolds a heart-stopping saga of courage and sacrifice during an emotionally-charged journey from the battlefield to Buckingham Palace.
