Friends,
Did anyone catch the programme "Fighting Passions" last night that was shown on UK BBC2?
I only caught the last half hour but what I saw was interesting. (Some clips\footage had been re-cycled from other BBC programmes I have seen).
Here is the synopsis:
It's currently on the iplayer here:

Here is the synopsis:
Documentary featuring interviews with soldiers on the act that defines them: killing.
For civilians, it is a crime. For soldiers, it is a job. Soldiers who have done it don't usually talk about it, but five former British infantrymen recall the reality of combat in compelling and candid detail. Through powerful personal testimonies, the programme traces the journeys of these men from young recruits, through training and frontline combat, to where killing places them today.
