My apologies all and no I wasn't trolling merely congrtulatory and complimenting t was the 2 page spread in today's Sunday Mirror tabloid as with the Express which mentions Sieben Though they used a pic of 53 Echo.
I was mildly surprised that as said detail was published.
When Basher Five One (or Two) was rescued in the book Return with Honour - showed pics and MEU description.
But when Jessica Lynch was rescued there werebt any of the units congratulated or mentioned anywhere in her book nor the web. The only reference around was the official news feed from Mavericks old hide out and the unit from therr taking part. Apart from her good self getting presented with medal in D.C but no mention of any of the helo crews getting commendations by Bush.
Cheers and happy bank holiday
