One of our Founders next to the clock tower in Hereford. Colin began his military career joining the Army in 1989, where he served in the Royal Scots. The SAS soon became of interest to Colin, passing selection into 22 SAS first time aged just 23. From that point on Colin was at the forefront of some of the most perilous SAS missions of recent times. He was faced with his most daring mission, nicknamed Operation Certain Death, back in 2000. Wading through the swamps of Sierra Leone on the hunt for the West Side Boys, Colin was aiming to rescue British soldiers who were being held hostage by the guerrilla gang. Alongside his fellow SAS soldiers, Colin was able to rescue the hostages and neutralise the West Side Boys. Proving himself to be a brave and committed soldier, Colin was trusted with more critical missions. Also in 2000, Colin was the first sniper on the scene when a hijacked plane landed at Stanstead Airport. Prominently remembered as the longest hostage siege on UK soil, Colin found himself amongst a four-day long stand-off. Unfortunately, Colin has not always been on the successful side of missions. Deployed to Basra on a rescue mission, Colin soon found himself to be the one that needed rescuing after he was taken hostage. Held alive for use in propaganda, he was fortunate to survive long enough to be rescued by British troops just after a mock ex*****on was performed on him. After this experience, Colin exchanged his role in the SAS to join Delta Force and Seal Team 6. He also worked to provide security for several high-profile clients such as A-level celebrities and the Saudi Royal Family. He is now best known for featuring in the Channel 4 programme SAS Who Dares Wins and Channel 5’s Secrets of the SAS. He also dedicates his time to a number of charitable organisations such as the Lee Rigby Foundation, NSPCC and Pilgrim Bandits. He also founded Who Dares Cares, a charity with a passion to support veterans who are coping with stress and now co-owns with 3 other

As candidates prepare for a casualty evacuation drill, they gather to hear a firsthand account from one of the DS (Directing Staff) who recounts his experience of extracting a casualty in Afghanistan. He shares the daunting task both he and his team faced having to move a casualty who had lost three limbs through the dense green zone, spanning over 1.5 kilometers to the field serving as a helicopter landing site. The scorching heat and enemy fire added to the already arduous challenge. However, he emphasises the unwavering determination required to press on and evacuate the casualty from the area, ultimately saving his life. The rapid response and the presence of the MERT (Medical Emergency Response Team) on the helicopter played a crucial role in saving the casualties life. You too can learn from the experience of all of the DS at , get in touch to book an event.

The soldier stood and faced God,
Which must always come to pass.
He hoped his shoes were shining,
Just as brightly as his brass.
'Step forward now, you soldier,
How shall I deal with you ?
Have you always turned the other cheek ?
To My Church have you been true?'
The soldier squared his shoulders and said,
'No, Lord, I guess I ain't.
Because those of us who carry guns,
Can't always be a saint.
I've had to work most Sundays,
And at times my talk was tough.
And sometimes I've been violent,
Because the world is awfully rough.
But, I never took a penny,
That wasn't mine to keep...
Though I worked a lot of overtime,
When the bills got just too steep.
And I never passed a cry for help,
Though at times I shook with fear.
And sometimes, God, forgive me,
I've wept unmanly tears.
I know I don't deserve a place,
Among the people here.
They never wanted me around,
Except to calm their fears.
If you've a place for me here, Lord,
It needn't be so grand.
I never expected or had too much,
But if you don't, I'll understand.
There was a silence all around the throne,
Where the saints had often trod.
As the soldier waited quietly,
For the judgment of his God.
'Step forward now, you soldier,
You've borne your burdens well..
Walk peacefully on Heaven's streets,
You've done your time in Hell.'

The Stoic Quote by Seneca: "Luck is where preparation meets opportunity" and Its Relevance in the Special Forces Environment

The wisdom encapsulated in the Stoic quote by Seneca, "Luck is where preparation meets opportunity," resonates deeply in the special forces environment, where the highest stakes and demanding challenges prevail. Seneca's words emphasise the critical interplay between readiness and seizing moments of opportunity, highlighting the core principles that define the ethos of special forces operations.

In the realm of special forces, preparation is the cornerstone of success. Special forces operatives undergo rigorous and exhaustive training, both physically and mentally, to cultivate a unique skill set that enables them to excel in a variety of high-pressure situations. They devote countless hours to honing their abilities, mastering TTP’s, acquiring specialised knowledge, and developing resilience in the face of adversity.

Stepping Into the Arena: Embrace the Challenge!

In life's grand tapestry, there are those who choose to step forward into the arena, to face challenges head-on, and to dare greatly. These courageous souls understand that victory is not guaranteed, yet they possess a burning desire to test their limits, grow, and evolve. Today, let us celebrate and draw inspiration from these audacious individuals who demonstrate unwavering resilience and unyielding determination.

In the arena of life, success is not solely measured by the number of triumphs one accumulates. It is not a reflection of the absence of failure or setbacks. Rather, true success lies in the courage to take that first step, to embrace uncertainty, and to embark on a journey of self-discovery and personal growth. It is a testament to the strength of character and the indomitable spirit that resides within each and every one of us.

Some who step into the arena emerge victorious, basking in the glory of achievement. Their hearts swell with pride, and rightfully so. They serve as beacons of inspiration, reminding us that with dedication, perseverance, and hard work, dreams can become reality. Their triumphs are not just personal victories but also a source of inspiration for others, igniting a spark of possibility in the hearts of those who witness their journeys.

Yet, let us not forget those who, despite their best efforts, stumble and fall along the way. They face disappointment, heartache, and moments of self-doubt. But here's the beautiful truth: even in their perceived "failures," they acquire lessons that are invaluable. They learn resilience in the face of adversity, they discover the depths of their own strength, and they gain wisdom that can only be obtained through experience.
