Yes, I have continued with the award to gold, and I still do cadets and got promoted to officer. Along with that, I do film making and research for charities. And for the expedition a hiking trek up the snow mountains
Tell us the story behind your photo:
During a very difficult trek we were around 1/3rds the way, and the platoon I was trekking with stopped for a break. I took a photo of the Officer of the platoon resting while eating his ration packs whilst sitting on the edge of a cliff, admiring the surroundings
