Chinook Crew Chick

From "How very dare they!" at being shot at, to the the highs and lows of military life - Liz McConaghy takes us on her journey as the longest serving female Chinook crew member. Part of that role was MERT (Medical Emergency Recovery Team) collecting the injured from the battlefield which many of the previous guests have first hand experience of. Her proudest work..but it came at a cost. An inspiration, and well worth an hour of your time.  

Her book is a great read - "Chinook Crew Chick"- available at Waterstones, Amazon etc

Combat Stress - Mental health services for veterans | Combat Stress

Help 4 Heroes - UK Armed Forces and military veterans charity | Help For Heroes
