[Enable Audio & watch in 4K] This is part of Hari’s story — a Veteran of the British Army whose service now lies almost half a century behind him at the time this video was made. It is a story largely unknown, carried quietly beneath the surface of everyday life as the years and decades have passed. Most of his friends are only vaguely aware of this facet of his life.
