Well, good old George W Bush is at it again...
Just is the MoD and the poor chap or chappess who pulled Orderly Officer at Lyneham tonight are trying to minimise rumours, POTUS goes out on airlive across the world and tells us that Brits and US personnel have died today during his election speech. I'm guessing he has got his info from the US SAR team via the Pentagon. I do hope he is wrong.
My thoughts go out to all relatives and friends of anybody involved.
