Fighting With Pride
We hear moving narratives from service personnel and commanders, who did extraordinary things, each a story of loyalty and courage. They include a holder of the Military Cross, a dismissed airman later Lord Mayor of Manchester, and a former First Sea Lord.
The series was produced by John Dash Media with the support of the Audio Content Fund and in partnership with the charity of the same name, which was formed in 2021 to represent the Armed Forces community effected by the ban.
