"Quite how having a SAR helicopter in province will stop soldiers being blown up by roadside bombs is a little difficult to conceive"

"They will pilot transport helicopters serving British troops"
"Helicopters are a preferred mode of transporting troops in Afghanistan, as they avoid the risk of roadside bombs"
Ass and trash for you from now on, boy.
