The Human Shield of Helmand: Sgt. Casper Mathiesen | February 2010

In February 2010, a 40-man strong Danish Army patrol was sent out to an area astride the River Helmand in Southern Afghanistan. On reaching a small Afghan village, two Danish soldiers were sent forward to scout out the area, during which they were ambushed by a large enemy force. In the ensuing engagement, one of the soldiers became wounded, leading to Sergeant Casper Mathiesen, the other Danish soldier, to selflessly place himself in front of his wounded colleague, thereby acting as a human shield and drawing the focus of the enemy onto himself.
