The Moment That Made Me | Major General Julian Thompson

Julian Thompson had already served 30 years in the Royal Marines when a phone call, in the dead of night, would come to define his career. It brought news of an imminent invasion, and orders to lead 3 Commando Brigade more than 7,000 miles across the Atlantic, in just a matter of days, to liberate the Falkland Islands. He tells Kate Gerbeau how his first reaction to the call was horror at being so unprepared, but that chaos always reigns and victory goes to whoever sorts out the chaos quickest. #bfbsforcesnews #forcesnews #podcast #veteran #uk #military #army #commando Subscribe to Forces News: http://bit.ly/1OraazC Check out our website: https://www.forcesnews.com Facebook:   / forcestv   Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/forcesnews/...
