About this listen

Former British Army sniper Ted Shirley opens up about the dark side of war — from deadly precision and sniper missions in Afghanistan, to the haunting aftermath of PTSD, nightmares, and addiction to killing.


Ted shares raw stories of his first kill, his battle with mental health, and how war followed him long after he left the battlefield. This is a brutally honest look at trauma, survival, and the fight to find peace after war.
