| Post subject: | 'Bomb magnet' wins Military Cross |
A soldier who has been blown up 17 TIMES on the front line has won a gallantry award. Dad-of-two Patrick Hyde has walked away from all the explosions with just a few cuts during his action-packed 21-year Army career. ![]() And his latest blast survival in which he won the Military Cross was even captured on camera by a pal during a patrol in Helmand. Patrick, 37, says: “They call me the bomb magnet because I’ve been blown up so many times. There was one in Iraq, 15 in Afghanistan, then this one. “I don’t know if I was blown up or down, left or right. This was as close as I ever want to get.” MIRROR |
