Thoughts are with the poor sods in Russian Navy; no pay for six months and then something like this happens. Thank god I failed my service medical.
Agree with everyone about bloody Politicians ego's (here and abroad).
Why don't we all stump up for a truly 'International Rescue' service (like in Thunderbirds)
The guys can go and rescue people, and the MPs/Senators/Eurocrats etc can do ****** all and take the credit!!!
