On today's Zero Limits Podcast I sat down with Justin Huggett MG former 2nd Battalion Royal Australian Regiment soldier.Justin served around 14 years at 2RAR as a digger/lcpl/cpl in Charlie coy, pl sgt in delta and mortars, Alpha coy MFC. During this time he deployed to Timor, Solomon Islands, Afghanistan deployed on Exercise Long Look to British Grenadier Guards and then with MTF 3.During a small patrol of newly trained Afghan soldiers walked into an ambush in 2007, it was quickly pinned down by fire from Taliban insurgents. With the patrol was Australian army corporal Justin Huggett, who was on secondment to Britain's Grenadier Guards. Justin took charge and led a counter-attack that cleared the building the insurgents were firing from. British commanders said his actions boosted the confidence and morale of the Afghan soldiers. Another time he helped get wounded Afghan soldiers under cover and treated them while still under fire. His superiors noted his strong nerve and considerable skill with mortar bombs which he fired into enemy forces dangerously close to his own position.Corporal Huggett was awarded the Medal for Gallantry and the citation says he displayed the highest standards of gallantry and personal courage on operations in Afghanistan in 2007.
