Inside Out East

Afghanistan: The Homecoming

Duration: 29 minutes

First broadcast: on BBC One HDLatest broadcast: on BBC One Cambridgeshire

David Whiteley presents a special Inside Out. As British troops pack their bags to head home from Afghanistan, we look at the impact across the East of England of the 13-year conflict. The programme visits Camp Bastion for the final weeks of operations. We reveal the pioneering work in Essex to help personnel with post-traumatic stress disorder and more common mental health problems faced by troops adjusting to life away from the conflict zone. And we see how the garrison town of Colchester copes with the return of troops and joins together the military and civilian communities. Show less
