Caught a couple of episodes, I found that really eye-opening...even though I had a couple of mates in there at that time, I'm still a bit shocked at what was involved :roll:

And my son still wants to join up, good for him to watch it I think.

I thought the passage he read out at the end was pretty good "life itself is a risk, people who are not willing to take risks are avoiding life itself, It is much better to die for freedom than to live in the shadow of ........... " It was something like that but i thought it it was good because when he said it it was very direct and in your face.
