Synopsis
Patrick Hennessey reads his soldier's tale for the 21st century - an account of his experiences at Sandhurst and then on deployment in the Balkans, Iraq and Afghanistan's Helmand Province.
Hennessey is at a tea party, on a dam, in the middle of a war. Helmand Province is where the British Army has allied with the Afghan National Army to find the Afghan solution to an Afghan problem, but that is easier said than done.
A Sweet Talk production for BBC Radio 4.
