Ep.118 Wes Masters MC British Army Medic - Military Cross Recipient

On this episode on the Zero Limits Podcast I chat with Wes Masters former Royal Army Medical Corps combat medic and recipient of the Military Cross.Wes Masters was awarded the Military Cross by Her Majesty The Queen for his actions on the battlefield in Afghanistan on the 4th of July 2013.The two men were among 12 British soldiers taking part in a pre-dawn raid on the Taliban in their stronghold of Yakshal in Helmand province.Wes ran hundreds of metres across dangerous ground surrounded by Taliban firing points, carrying heavy equipment, in stifling heat to tend to his comrade who had taken a shot in the throat from a Taliban sharp-shooter.  His actions kept the wounded soldier in the fight. That wounded soldier was a sniper, who then went on to have a significant impact on the battle, and undoubtedly preserved the lives of many of his teammates, whilst reducing the threat and capability of the enemy they were fighting.That injured comrade was Simon Moloney, who was awarded the Conspicuous Gallantry Cross for his actions on that same day. Simon has told his side of the story in a previous episode of the podcast.Send us a text however note we cannot reply through these means.
