HERO Paras have made an amazing video of their battles with the Taliban — setting it to the booming music of rapper Eminem.
The five-minute film begins with a written message in rap-style verse addressed to “Terry Taliban” and signed off “Airborne Forever.”
Then, as Eminem belts out a song from the film 8 Mile in the background, it features incredible footage of 3 Para fighting the enemy in Afghanistan’s flashpoint Sangin area.
Soldiers blaze away with machine guns as they come under fire from rocket-propelled grenades.
They call in air support from an American A-10 tank-buster jet, which strafes Taliban positions and spews decoy flares.
A Taliban stronghold in a house 200 yards away is blown up. And a Chinook helicopter kicks up a dramatic dust cloud as it drops more ammo and supplies to Our Boys.
The Paras returned home last month after a six-month tour of duty, during which an estimated 1,000 Taliban were eliminated.
Their tape came to light on an internet site.
Last night the Ministry of Defence said: “We are immensely proud of all those serving on operations, who continue to perform brilliantly.”

Here's the words to the song "Message for Terry Taliban" written by British soldiers in Afghanistan -
Message for
Terry Taliban
Watch out Terry,
we're hunting you down,
There's nowhere to hide
in Sangin town,
You s*** yourself when
the .50s are fired,
No point in running, you'll
only die tired,
Got A-10s on call for
brassing you up,
No food or water, we
don't give a f***,
So do one Terry, you've
plenty to fear,
We run this town now, the
Paras are here.
