The C-17 Globemaster is one of the world's largest military transport aircraft, capable of carrying anything from tanks and helicopters to troops and supplies.
But when the emergency call comes the plane is transformed into a hospital with everything needed to bring often terribly wounded service personnel home to their families in less than 36 hours from the point of injury.
With a top speed of over 500 mph, and flying at 28,000 feet, it's a world away from the medicine available in previous conflicts. Flying into war zones, the medical team and crew put themselves in the line of fire to bring 121 critically injured patients back to Britain in 2009, more than twice as many as in 2008.

I just got done watching the first part of this and it is sad indeed. My heart goes out to those brave soldiers who were hurt and killed in such a senseless way! God Bless them and their families.

This is the start of the fight of their lives....the biggest battle is against a Government who want to stop paying War Disability Pensions and benefits to these lads and force them to beg charities for help or take totally inappropriate jobs just to stay alive.....DISGRACEFUL !!!!!!
