OVERVIEW

Description

Diary of our Heroes. An extraordinary online first person eyewitness account.

During his work for the UN peacekeeping mission in Mali one Special Forces Commando kept an online video diary.

For the first time, the public gets a first-hand look into the work and people of the Royal Dutch Army’s elite deployed in combat. Taking the online audience to the heart of conflict.

Never before a special forces mission was captured in such detail, nor has any camera crew been allowed to film so freely the life and works of a Special Forces unit on a mission.

One commando filmed everything during his 12 months tour in Mali.

Daily life at basecamp, preparing for patrols, but also the work ‘in the field’: long-distance reconnaissance in the desert, gathering intelligence, negotiating to insurgents and going on missions

Hear what they hear, see what they see.
