Now now - don't let reality get in the way of the outrage bus!
Slightly off thread - all these boxes to 'A Soldier/Sailor/Airman Serving in AFG'. I assume they are all searched or put through an x-ray at the BFPO? You could just imagine some Terry Taliban supporter sending out all sorts of wierd and wonderful things - like cakes made with laxative, drinks spiked with poison etc. Bit paranoid, granted, but a fairly simple way to randomly "disable" soldiers - send enough and you start to put pressure on the deployed medics. Anyone remember how quickly food poisoning spread around Ali-Al-Salem (a couple of years before TELIC IIRC)? A bit like posting on here - under cover of anonymity you can pretty much get away with anything. Now where's my tin foil hat ....?
