Injured serviceman鈥檚 Afghanistan diary
After being blown up by a roadside IED in Helmand province, Sgt 'Baz' Barrett's chances of survival were thought to be slim, but he survived against the odds.
Three months of his life during his hospitalisation remain a complete blank.
Recently, he met with Falklands War veteran, Simon Weston, to talk about facing the future once he leaves the Army.
Baz, who is based with the Royal Marines in Devon, has been trying to piece together what happened when he was wounded with the help of a diary compiled by the Army.
