Description

Mark Billingham spent three decades in the armed forces, including time in the elite SAS squadron. But what led him there? 'Billy' talks about his rough upbringing in the Midlands, and how it could have all been very different if it wasn't for a chance meeting and the sport of boxing. Plus he reveals how a bad accident almost prevented everything from happening at all! Another great listen. Sponsored by Bose.
