Pundit Review Radio

Bruce McQuain from QandO joined us for another edition of Someone You Should Know. Tonight Bruce told us about a Royal Marine, Lance Corporal Matt Croucher "A Royal Marine in southern Afghanistan threw himself onto an exploding grenade to save the lives of his patrol. Miraculously, Lance Corporal Matt Croucher, a marine reservist from Birmingham, survived the blast with little injury when his rucksack and body armour took the force of the blast. He is expected to receive one of the highest awards for gallantry. The story of his courage emerged last week in interviews with marines occupying a forward operating base near Sangin in Helmand province. They are preparing to leave after serving for six months at the centre of some of the fiercest fighting in Afghanistan. The outpost, Forward Operating Base Inkerman, is better known to troops as "FOB Incoming"." The Someone You Should Know radio collaboration began as an extension of Matt Burden’s series at Blackfive. Thanks to Matt, Bruce is now on board and
