Battle Scars: A Story of War and All That Follows

Product Information

I am impressed with how Fox opens up, and it does appear to be a follow on from Battle Scars (the first of Fox’s literary efforts), with certain elements of his mental health explored some more, but ultimately, providing the reader with his solutions to battle through the fog. Outside of his military career, some of Fox’s bigger adventures include rowing across the Atlantic ocean from Lagos, Portugal to Macuro, Venezuela in 2016 with four of his mates Aldo Kane, Matthew Bennett, Ros Johnson and Oliver Bailey. Known as Team Essence, their expedition [13] took the crew 50 days over 3,308 nautical miles, and landed them a record for becoming the first team to row unsupported, crossing the Atlantic Ocean from east to west - from mainland Europe to South America, non-stop from mainland to mainland. Across the journey Team Essence also raised money for the NSPCC. Be situationally aware“In the special forces, because there are a million different things going on, your head is always on a swivel. Be aware of those around you.” Life does not go as planned or is an easy ride for anybody. Whatever you do, whoever you are, whatever you are aiming to be in life, it will not be easy.

L-R Jason Fox, Ant Middleton, Olly Ollerton and Mark Billingham (Photo: Channel 4) The early years During my military career, I dealt regularly with fear, emotional breakdown, pain in hostile environments and the horrors of war. I summoned bravery during intense gun battles and, perhaps more courageously, raised my hand for help during my darkest moment - though it took a while. The psychological techniques I developed during my time as an elite operator still serve me today, in and out of danger.’ – Jason FoxWhen Fox talks about his stories about life in the warzones, you do not feel disconnected from the overall principle of this book & it’s messages of how we can all change! Instead, the addition of personal stories - that are then represented in other life situations we may be more familiar with - you are taken more deeply into this book. Jason Fox delivers expertly a contrast of his own gripping stories & making them relatable to us readers unfamiliar with the thrill-seeking & dangerous scenarios this man has been in. I’m not sure I’d revisit this one, but for the most part I enjoyed it and my review certainly doesn’t take away from his aim to help people. While in the SBS, Fox planned and led operations including hostage rescue, counter-terrorism, counterinsurgency, maritime counter-terrorism, surveillance, bodyguarding and counter-narcotics missions.
