'Bravo'
A fine summary of the disastrous decision on the SHAR. But I'm not sure that anyone on high will listen to reasoned argument.
Once upon a time, I was told that it was a sign of good leadership and honour to admit your mistakes - otherwise people will see you for the charlatan that you are and as someone who doesn't have the courage to admit 'sorry chaps, I cocked that one'! Unfortunately, a point lost on the 'leadership' of today, both political and military.
