Owain Mulligan: The Accidental Soldier - The Sunday Session with Francesca Rudkin

Former British army troop leader Owain Mulligan describes his time in the army as a hobby that got out of control.

A teacher by trade, Owain joined the Territorial Army as an outlet and something to do on the weekends.

Little did he know, the training would lead him to Iraq – not just as a soldier but leading a fighting troop.

Owain kept a diary during his seven months in Iraq – he’s now turned those writings into a book, The Accidental Soldier.
