Yesterday my son passed P Company and continues his journey to become a paratrooper and serve his new King. His hard work, determination, mental & physical robustness is admirable.

I was in the back of his vehicle the first time we got hit. His split second decision making saves many lives. The second time he took a direct hit to the face from an RPG. Coops and I pulled him out of his drivers hatch. Good to see him looking well.
Lots of stars at the Chelsea Flower Show today, but none bigger than this guy: β¦β¦@johnsonbeharryβ© VC. A man who TWICE saved his unit in Iraq from ambushes, suffering serious injuries in the second attack. Great soldier, great man. β¦β¦β¦@The_RHSβ©

Dealing with a mental health problem is hard. It can impact your job performance, parenting abilities, relationships, hobbies and self-worth. Another challenging layer. Stigma. This is the feeling of judgement when you mention your mental health state. #WorldMentalHealthDay18

This is a disgrace and another betrayal on those who served.
