Isn't the point that we have bought into a warfighting deployment? This is when we realise that the government likes talking tough, but to fight war, you commit enough assets to ensure dominance of your enemy. The article in the Sunday Times today shows the quality of the troops deployed but it also shows the lack of support available to them. Time spent in reconnaissance is seldom wasted...didn't a well-known Army guy say that?
