Many soldiers killed in conflicts regularly appear on news bulletins, little is heard about the wounded until the good news about one brave Soldier, Lance Sergeant Nathan Cumberland, from Newark-On-Trent, Nottinghamshire. He served with 1st  Battalion of the Grenadier Guards  when he was injured badly by a bomb blast  just six weeks into his third tour of duty in Afghanistan, our Heroes. Welcome home.



He count himself one of the lucky one to live compared to many of his friends. Despite his injuries he knew the best thing is to take charge and ordered his eight-man reconnaissance patrol from the 1st Battalion of the Grenadier Guards to take cover and return fire. They fought their way to safety, taking Nathan with them, and he was airlifted to the Army’s Camp Bastion base for emergency surgery.

Many thanks for your help  little one

Thanks Nathan For Giving a helping Hand To Others

Newark and around the area should be grateful  as Nathan put his heart into it and decided to tackle the half-marathon as his way of saying many thanks to everybody who had supported him.
