northern monkey;
Why is it everyone else managed to keep a lid on it like requested, yet you have to spurt it all over the internet.
From todays online 'Squaddies favourite' paper;

"The Army Lynx helicopter was raked with gunfire on a trip from Dogwood to Baghdad.
The chopper’s brave co-pilot narrowly averted disaster by regaining control of the stricken aircraft and landing it back at the Scots regiment’s HQ.
Rebel fighters used the cover of dense palm trees ten miles north-east of the base to attack the Lynx as it flew overhead at 100ft.
Troops in and around Camp Dogwood were also bombarded in four separate missile and mortar strikes.
A first barrage of four rockets exploded inside the compound around 2.15pm and a soldier was hit by shrapnel in the arm.
The attack also left a Lynx helicopter on the ground badly damaged"
