Rosie Stone was recording an audio diary at the moment she came under fire on a patrol in southern Afghanistan.
This was her first experience of a combat situation after more than eight years of service in the Army.
But it became a very different learning experience as she was given shelter and tea by local Afghan women while a gun battle raged behind their compound wall.
Rosie shares her recording of that moment with Kate Gerbeau, and explains how that moment shaped her new life as an expert in human security and gender in conflict.
