Episode 8 Operation TELIC 8 20 years on: Erik Rawdon

The 2nd Battalion, Royal Anglian Regiment deployed on Operation TELIC 8 in the summer of 2006. In honour of the 20 year anniversary here is the third in the series of Podcasts telling the stories of those that were there.

Erik Rawdon served a full career in the 2nd Battalion the Royal Anglian Regiment, leaving the Army as a Warrant Officer Class One.

During Op Telic 8 in 2006, Erik was a young Lance Corporal and he took part in some fierce fighting and he played his part in numerous strike operations. It is great to hear about this tour through the eyes of a young Junior Non-Commissioned Officer.

There is also some sound advice for all those in positions of command.
