My name is Hannah Snell, but I'm better known as James Gray.
My parents died when I was 17, my husband ran away and my baby daughter died. Everything in my life is falling to pieces.
I need something to do, and finding my long gone, Royal Marine husband is currently the top of my list.
But there's a problem: women can't join the military.
This is the true story of Hannah Snell, the first ever female Royal Marine. Everything in this story (which I wrote for my lecturette as a handout on my promotion board as a RM cadet) is factually correct.
I hope you enjoy.
