will sign and pass on the word. i set up a petiton last year campaigning for explosive suppressant foam to be fitted in all british hercules aircraft after the loss of my brother and nine very fine men when their hercules crashed in iraq in jan 05. in the end i got just shy of 3000 signatures. i will put out my feelers to see if i can asist in any way. if you need any media contacts PM me and i will be only too happy to help.

whilst i agree that something has to be done about the brize situation, i feel it will only be a matter of time before the wiltshire coroner is in the smae predicament. to instigate such a move with no support, resources or funding to facilitate an improved service is pointless and will only be a short term fix, if that. the service is stretched already. we lost our loved ones jan 05. the pre inquest reiview was held at the end of feb...07! we await now another pre inquest review and then the inquest. 2 years plus and it still goes on.

keep up the good work...keep the faith!
