Warriors

From meeting the world's deadliest gangsters to perhaps the hardest assignment of all: embedded with the British Army in Afghanistan's Helmand province. Ross Kemp has not only experienced the terror and exhilaration of life on the frontline, but also the courage and leadership of today's servicemen and women. The plight of our Armed Forces is one especially close to his heart, and here Kemp tells the stories of commandos, medics, submarines, fighter pilots, infantrymen, sailors and engineers in daring raids. This book is Ross Kemp's personal tribute to some of the most remarkable men and women to have served in the British Armed Forces during two World Wars, many of them unsung and forgotten.
