What is it like to drive a Challenger tank over desert terrain for six days in a row Or hover an Apache AH1 attack helicopter a hundred metres above enemy ground How quickly can a Sapper clear a field of unexploded devices, or build a bridge - or blow one up What is it like to fix bayonets, and engage in hand to hand combat, or train a 5.56 mm SA80 sniper sight on an enemy soldier, and pull the trigger
How do you find out what a soldier must learn on his way to war... Ask him.
