His extraordinary heroics sound like something out of a Rambo movie.
When Grenadier Guardsman Lewis Coulbert, 22, was shot in the left arm during a Taliban firefight he refused to quit the battlefield.
Bloodied and in agony, he poked around the wound with his fingers before plucking out the bullet.
He then applied a bandage, resumed his position and started shooting at the insurgents again.
What makes Guardsman Coulbert's actions even more amazing is that it was his first gun battle and tour of duty in Afghanistan.
