What makes someone want to become a soldier? What does it take to command troops on operations, and is a career in the British Army still worthwhile? In this episode of The Security Podcast, Sean Rayment talks to Colonel Harry Fullerton OBE, former commanding officer of the Household Cavalry Regiment, about his military career, why he joined the Life Guards and the realities of leading soldiers in some of the world's most dangerous environments.

Regular listeners will be familiar with Harry's views on defence, military strategy and national security, but this episode takes a more personal look at the man behind the uniform. From the highs and lows of military life to the challenges of command and the changing nature of soldiering, Harry reflects on his experiences and considers whether, knowing what he knows today, he would still recommend a career in the British Army.
