The British Army saw service around the world in 2004, from the Balkans to the Middle East and beyond. Both regular and territorial units shared the dangers and responsibilities of Operational Duties. British Army 2004 captures our forces in operation around the globe, combining dramatic film reports with exclusive interviews with officers and men in the field. This unique title takes you out on night patrol with the Highland Regiment in Basra and with the Paras on a long range mission. It also reveals the lighter side of Army life in Iraq, with the Highlanders delighting Iraqi children with the sound of the pipes and a Territorial soldier who sings opera on patrol! You'll also visit the often-overlooked Afghanistan Theatre, where the Green Howards are training Afghan troops and patrolling Kabul, see a rare glimpse of British forces in Sierra Leone and join British peacekeeping forces in Kosovo and Bosnia. British Army 2004 also offers unique coverage of army exercises during the year, including light anti-aircraft drills in the Falklands, Warrior fighting vehicles on manoeuvres in East Anglia and Westland Apache Longbows on live fire exercises in Dorset.
