In 2006, 88 soldiers consisting mainly of paratroopers from 3 Para and two platoons of Royal Irish soldiers found themselves at the mercy of hundreds of Taliban in the town of Musa Qaleh, Helmand Province. Faced with relentless attacks from all directions, and a combination of direct and indirect weaponry, the vastly outnumbered troops held their ground in a set of low-walled buildings within the District Centre compound, for 56 days. Jo Scrivener was the Company Sergeant Major. A company sergeant major (CSM) in an infantry unit in the UK is responsible for the welfare and discipline of the enlisted men within the company.
