Link to Airforce Afghanistan (episode 1) documentary
Documentary Description
The first in an access-all-areas documentary series, narrated by Dexter
Fletcher, giving an insight into how Kandahar Air Field - the biggest
military base in the world, is run. A new RAF Regiment squadron arrives
from the UK to guard the camp and they find it has lots to offer - fast
food outlets, sports pitches and even a couple of massage parlours. An
extreme contrast to what they face outside the wire – hostile
territory, the Taliban and roadside bombs. The Harrier Jump Jets are
scrambled to support troops in Helmand province. And as an antidote to
the war the RAF hosts Kandahar's Strongest Man Contest to get the
different nations competing together.
