In July 2011 as Major Sam Nicholls, the medic on a MERT helicopter, prepares to return to England on secondment, her boyfriend, Corporal Dean, quizzes her about her motives for returning. Suddenly they're interrupted by a call on his radio.

As Sam treats a severely-injured little boy, Hassan, he points to the back of the tea house where his father Saleh lies injured. Amidst further blasts, Sam risks her life to treat the patient. But as Saleh starts to act in an agitated fashion and reaches for a device in his pocket, Sam makes a split-second decision which has life-changing consequences. She shoots him, only to realise after that he was simply reaching for his inhaler. She later leaves the forces.
