WARFIGHTER: The Line We Choose to Cross (Short Story)

In a war that moved too fast and made too little sense, the Royal Military Police were left holding the centre.

They weren’t meant to fight.

They weren’t meant to lead.

But when the front collapsed, the RMP — Britain’s Redcaps — stood their ground.

Across sixteen brutal days, a mismatched group of officers and NCOs faced insurgents, landmines, betrayal, and chaos. Some wanted glory. Others just wanted to get their soldiers home. What they found was something else entirely: honour, friendship, and the kind of leadership that doesn’t make headlines — but wins wars.

From the sword no one wanted to the bridge no one built, from stolen bicycles to battlefield ghosts, this is the story of Major Rhys, Captain Leanne, WO2 Pete, and the others who stood watch while the rest of the world turned away.

Because in the end, someone had to draw the line.
