The young lad on the left was fully engaged in this conversation about an empty house we were looking to utilise & turn into a security post in the Chura Valley in 2010. It was amazing how the elders gave him the freedom to talk & I’ve often wondered why - & where he might be now

Now that was quite an evening!!

He comes from a dysfunctional family, pissed around at school but scraped his A Levels & spent time in Australia on a gap year before joining the Army. He did some stuff, went to some places, then left - but served on. He got married & things changed. All normal. #PrinceHarryAt40
