~SALUTE~
Shot in neck, with blood spilling over his throat, machine-gunner Simon Moloney knew he had to return to the fight or his comrades would be over-run by the Taliban.
So, just minutes after thinking he had been fatally wounded, he was back in the heat of battle and helping to repel a ferocious attack.
He only quit 90 minutes later after being ordered to by his commanding officer.
