The Veterans Helping The UK Flood Relief Effort

Almost 100 flood warnings remain in place for Scotland, England and Wales following Storm Frank, with military personnel continuing to support the relief effort.
 
But in the town of Tadcaster, just outside York, where a 300-year-old bridge collapsed, the military support has stretched beyond regular troops. 
 
Many veterans have also been doing their bit to aid the relief effort.
 
They're part of Team Rubicon, a charity which uses the skills of veterans to help in disaster-torn regions.
