while it's good the bods up top are listening to us, i'm a worried bunny about the language being used. am i being daft? it keeps getting said that the hercs have adequate protection and that's sufficient. we are fighting for complete protection for all environments. like i keep saying, it was a bullet meeting the lethal fuel mixture that they had on board that brought bob down. our troops need protecting from being shot at anywhere around the world and from the tanks of fuel they carry. terms like adequate and appropiate should not be allowed. this is the 21st century. for god sake bring us up to date. you can't continue to have a" can't have "situation in a "can do "culture. the sooner they change this to what should already be in situ then you can maintain the "can do "ethic successfully.
