From Civilian life to the Front Line of War, join acclaimed film maker Chris Terrill as he follows a group of young recruits, each embarking on an extraordinary, intense and life-changing journey to become a Royal Marine Commando.
With unprecedented access to both the training and battle ground, this series, first seen on ITV1, captures the exhilaration, excitement and fear of 924 Troop as they prepare for the killing fields of Afghanistan. Terrill, who himself lived and trained with the rookie Marines of 924 Troop, records eight months of training that will test nerve, stamina and intelligence - and then shows first hand how this most gruelling military training in the world is put into practice on the battlefields of Afghanistan.
