...anyone would think there's an election around the corner. It was so good of Bob Ainsworth to tell us recently how he needed heavy lift in Afghanistan and that he was buying 22 more Chinooks. I guess these weren't needed 2 years ago but at least we have them now, not much use if you're a dead soldier of course.
"those who put themselves in harm's way on our behalf remain properly supported and resourced" (but we could do with ordering some heavy lift before the May elections...)
