  • Résumé

  • Today I was joined by my friend Kieran "Woody" Haywood.

    Woody served for 21 Years in the British Army in The Royal Green Jackets and The Rifles. He saw active combat in Iraq and Afghanistan where he was shot in the face by the Taliban during a firefight.

    We spoke about his life in the Army where he had a varied career that included winning various Boxing Championships, attempting brutal SAS selection and how PTSD has effected him and his post Army life.

    Woody wrote a detailed diary of his time in Afghanistan which I was lucky to get a copy of, he is the process of hopefully getting it published.

    If you where affected by any of the stories in this Podcast, or if Woody's honesty about his struggles with PTSD have encouraged you to wish to take action then I have linked below a few links for mental health support.
