See if you join in with this lot - Soldiers to sue MoD for lives blighted by Iraq

.....15 British soldiers who recently served in Iraq are to sue the government over claims it failed to help them cope with the psychological trauma of the conflict. The Observer has learnt the servicemen, who include senior officers, will launch legal action against the Ministry of Defence over allegations of 'medical negiglence.' They are the first cases of litigation brought by troops involved in the current conflict and will reignite concerns over its duty of care. Mark McGhee of Manchester-based Linda Myers Solicitors said the cases involved men who had told the Army they were suffering serious psychological trauma following service in Iraq, but did not receive the appropriate help.
