James Blunt

James Blunt was a Captain in the Life Guards (with the Blues and Royals they make up the Household Cavalry) after graduating from his army-sponsored place at Bristol University.

He was part of the NATO peacekeeping mission in Kosovo in 1999 and as an Armoured Reconnaissance Officer was tasked with working ahead of the front line and it is claimed he was the first British Officer to enter the capital of Kosovo.

Blunt is a talented muscian and wrote the song ‘No Bravery’ while serving in Kosovo and in one interview he pointed out that he had been shot at more times than 50 Cent!
