      I Never Gave Up
      Nov 29 2023

      Stephen Vause was only 19 when he was deployed to Iraq as an infantryman.

      During fierce fighting around Basra in 2007, he suffered a very serious head injury from a mortar blast.

      Stephen was picked up by an RAF helicopter crew and fought for his life while the aircraft itself came under fire.

      In September 2005 Karl Hinett was an 18-year-old infantry soldier serving with the British Army in Iraq.

      During a deployment to Basra, as part of an operation to rescue two SAS soldiers, his Warrior armoured vehicle was caught in a full-scale riot.

      What happened next forced Karl to decide whether to live or die.

      Warning: Upsetting content from the outset.

      Liz McConaghy deployed to both Iraq and Afghanistan with the RAF as a chinook helicopter crewman.

      She regularly witnessed death and trauma while picking up seriously injured soldiers from the battlefield as part of the Medical Emergency Response Team or MERT.

      Liz’s first brush with death came when her helicopter struck some overhead wires.

      Years later she would face it again in her own home.
