So I called my mum and I said, mum, I'm going to America. She said, that's fantastic. Where about? And I went, Central America? She goes, okay, calm down. Central America? Where exactly? I went, Belize? She went, you clown. You're going to the jungle. I went, what? If you'd have gone to school and learned geography, you'd know where you're going.

So I end up in Belize, and I came to America for the first time at 17 years old, 18 years old. And I went to Fort Lauderdale. There was a thing called the Strip. Is it still the same? I don't know. Oh, man, it was chaotic. I was 17, and I was drunk as a skunk, and obviously you're not supposed to drink until you're 21. I had a great time. First trip to America.

Followed these people who'd all been to war and conflict, and I learned a lot from these people. And then I climbed the ladder over a nine-year period. I'd been in conflict myself now. I'd led operations.

I was, yeah. That was later on, though. And then, nine years, I kind of reached my ceiling with that regiment. They were fantastic. I say reached my ceiling. I wanted more challenge. I wanted to go somewhere different. Didn't know a lot about special forces, which most people don't. I knew enough to say it's a challenge, I want to do it. So I did. Went on selection in 92, beginning of 92.

283 of us started, seven of us finished. And I went to a squadron called B Squadron, which is famous for the Iranian embassy. I don't know if you know all about that. That was the first time special forces were ever heard of on TV and around the nation. So I went to that squadron and I had a wonderful career.

I did everything from hostage release to indicting people for war crimes to whatever, and decorated by the Queen a couple of times and stuff like that. But it was great. It was just a wild, crazy career. That's incredible.
