OM DENNE EPISODE
In 2013, Paul Cale earned the titles Australia’s Toughest Soldier and the Killer Commando after he stormed an enemy compound and strangled a Taliban leader his bare hands. At the time, he was a sergeant of the Second Commando Regiment: an elite branch of the Australian Defence Force that suffered more casualties than any other Australian military unit through several tours of Iraq and Afghanistan. In this episode of Violent Times, we explore state-sanctioned violence, and its impact on individuals and communities.
