Military UKIP
SW is akin to NF in that everyone can have their say against him, but lots of home truths come out in the process. Its a book, and this thread will ensure more copies are sold.
My opinion is that all military operations are basically always trying to cope with political overtones and equipment issues, however it does not take away anything from the 'people' who are tasked with carrying out these duties in demanding circumstances. The top end may well get wobbly, but the people at the sharp end always deliver as best they can. (just like 80 years ago)
