Sangin Afghanistan Feb-Mar 07. Holed up in sangin DC. Some really heavy fighting, mortars, arty, airstrikes ect. Also being Engineers we had to sandbag the FSG tower, mortar pits and sangers. All filmed by me or my section. During the siege, fighting became intensive, causing General David J. Richards, the NATO commander in Afghanistan, to declare that Helmand province had seen the fiercest fighting involving British troops since the Korean War
