Chappie makes a valid point about Top Brass having to face the responsibility of their decisions. I would describe it as reckless, armed with the knowledge we have now, to send Herc crews to Afg without foam. Safety provided by foam was never a factor in the planning process for this deployment. I am awaiting with interest the BoI result for XV206.

Could be the "Top Brass" rue the day they did not prioritise the fitting of foam.
