Simon Moloney CGC (Conspicuous Gallantry Cross)

"I knew exactly who had shot me. That fucker got the drop on me. I could feel the bullet hole, and I was bleeding heavily. Shot through the throat...I know what that means. I've only got a few minutes left. I'm going to take out as many of them as I can, and go out with a bang." - @mo1089 I have some amazing guests lined up for the Live Train Perform podcast, one of those being this legend, whom I met at @tigermuaythai a couple of years ago.Simon Moloney was awarded the Conspicuous Gallantry Cross by Her Majesty The Queen for his actions on the battlefield as a sniper in Afghanistan with the British Military.In this episode, we discuss:- What went down on that day- The journey and training he undertook to lead him up to these life defining moments- The similarities and differences we each went through training to become snipers- The challenges he's faced, as well as the triumphs achieved since transitioning back to civvie streetBe prepared for some dark humour, too much swearing, and previously untold stories.
