Nimrod crash in Afghanistan Tech/Info/Discussion (NOT condolences)

Yes, it might be a difficult time for them, but it isn't anywhere near as difficult as it is for the families and friends of those lost unnecessarily.

Winco, I do not disagree, out thoughts should be with the families and friends left behind because of this wholly avoidable catastrophe. However, at least George Baber has had the decency to stand up and admit that he will shoulder the blame as it happened on his watch, as such in my view he has shown honour and done the right thing, and although we shouldn’t congratulate him for it let's at least recognise what he has done. It’s a shame that a great many Politicians and bureaucrats will never have the spine to do the same thing, and therefore should not be in the positions they are now.
