  4. Before Vaughan filmed us, I took the time to interview him just before the patrol. He didn't like the high walls of the village. I told him he was better off inside the village than out south with us. But still... he braved it!

    Very cool guy. Very cool patrol. Thanks for the memories being recorded Mr Smith! Honourary Viking be ye!
