Lawyers saw how much money they could make and wanted to ruin veterans lives. Paul Shiner admitted to paying people in Iraq to find militia members and random civilians to make up war crimes. He’s the lowest of the low.

I think Colour Sgt Brian Wood MC knows a bit about the real world of war, seeing as this movie is about him, when he led the first British Army bayonet charge in 25 years in Iraq. And as you can see he insisted on the battle scenes being as he remembered them. So pretty accurate i would say.

Looking at this drama you'd think he got out and done all that by himself and ordering the 2 others to attack and that's not true.

The guy was medal hungry and now publicity hungry making money and distorting the facts of the battle.

@@sam8742 Well Sam, i know for a fact that they go through the medal commendations with a fine tooth comb, i think one officer has been done for bigging up his own actions in Afghanistan and has had his MC removed. One soldier even refused his MC as he said it didn't happen as his officer said it had. So i would be careful putting too much store in complete strangers who say they were there, and even if they were, who knows if they didn't have an axe to grind with Wood. He has been on telly a lot over the years and i would have thought that if he was an unpopular bullshitter, it would have come out by now. So until someone who was there actually goes on telly or to the press and gives a full story deriding everything Wood says, i will just have to take Woods word for it.
@@williammohan9784 well I'd like to just point out that may have not happened the same, I'm not talking full stock in his comment, but he should be questioned a little
@@sam8742 i have questioned Mark about all this and also questioned him on why as he lead section commander who declared he thought Wood a liar and a bottle job who had to be ordered into combat, why he didn't complain about him in his after action report or question his MC. I am still waiting his reply. I would have thought he would be right back to me with his justification. He also alleges that Wood went to the RMPs and changed his statement two days later. This would mean the RMP being complicit in the lie. Plus the RMPs on site could have been guilty of negligence of duty, or perverting the course of justice. I dont think any RMP would be that stupid.

Yes!!
Be sure to watch Kajaki. That's a British War Film about the Kajaki Dam Minefield Incident.
Human rights lawyers are the scum of the earth.
I read the actual report of the contact and I bet the dramatisation of the contact is know where near as bad as what happened. Let's wait and see.
