Guardsman Downes's vehicle was hit by an explosion when on a patrol with the Afghan National Army (ANA) close to the town of Sangin in Helmand Province.
The Grenadier Guards and the ANA had been taking part in an operation to help widen and deepen irrigation ditches for locals in the area. Guardsman Downes died from the injuries he sustained in the explosion.

just seen the alan titichmarsh show where the soldiers where singin letters home based on the letter that this brave man wrote to his family, knowing what could happen him. It must be a really difficult thing to do , write a letter to your loved ones just before you go to war. I am so proud of our boys and girls , its just so wrong that so many are being killed. Im sure Neil is looking down on his family and friends and a day doesnt go pass without them thinking of him. GOD BLESS YOU x
