Surviving Combat & PTSD | Former PARA MI5 Firefighter Andy Williams

In this Debrief episode, former SAS trooper Phil Campion sits down with Andy Williams to discuss his remarkable journey from a challenging childhood to a career in the British Army’s Parachute Regiment, MI5, and the fire service. He opens up about the physical and emotional challenges of combat, his transition from the military due to post-traumatic stress, and his later roles in MI5, private security, and firefighting. Now a firefighter, Andy talks about the rewarding aspects of his current role, the sense of camaraderie in the fire service, and his recently released book, Beyond the Drop Zone.
