Kajaki 'Vikings' are kings of the hill
For the last month the soldiers from B (Suffolk) Company, 1st Battalion, The Royal Anglian Regiment, have been based in Kajaki, southern Afghanistan. Although they call it home, they have few of the comforts most people would associate with a cushy life. Report by Corporal Jon Bevan and Captain Jim Bewley.
The 1st Battalion The Royal Anglian Regiment, known as 'The Vikings' have been involved in operations throughout Helmand province since deploying in April 2007. The soldiers from B Company have found themselves operating in a variety of combat environments. This has included operating from Viking vehicles in the desert, patrolling the streets of Sangin and carrying out strike operations in the notorious 'green zone'.
