Rocks in a Hard Place - Episode 2

The second of a weekly series of videos following the RAF Regiment on the frontline in Basra. The Rock Apes are out on patrol. There's no margin for error outside the base. With the enemy watching their every move and the constant threat of Improvised Explosive Devices (IEDs), B Flight must be on their toes at all times.

I want to be a photograper in the RAF..

i'm looking to do a degree at a Uni to keep my options open if all fails, but more importantly so i could jump in at a higher rank.

However, being the youngest son, my Mother sees it from a different perspective and doesn't want me in a dangerous career.

What are the threats of the typical RAF photographer? - apposing to the pretty picture that recruiting offices explain.

Thanks,

Luke B

Bunch of absolute jebends posting comments, most of you are civilians therefore have no real right to comment. Theyre all part of the british armed forces, theyre all fighting for the same cause, so stop saying one is better than the other disrespectful nob ends
