Army team claim third place in Atlantic rowing challenge
Four service personnel have completed the world's toughest rowing race – the Talisker Whisky Atlantic Challenge.
The Row2Recovery crew of 2 amputee and 2 able-bodied soldiers set off on 3 December last year to row an epic 3,000 miles across the Atlantic.
After an exhausting 48 days, 9 hours and 13 minutes at sea the team touched land on the tiny Caribbean island of Antigua, securing an amazing third place overall.
