Really? Why not? I may be a little out of touch - has there been a run of attacks on military personnel within the UK recently? Are our terrorist enemies specifically targetting military personnel, their homes and their modes of transport? This must have escaped the BBC's sharpest journalists!
Or is it yet another example of good old British 'I'll make sure they can't sue me' sloping-shoulder disease?
This stinks, as it did in the days of the IRA - when there really was a threat.
