"Operating as foreign troops"? really? All the guys I know on exchange always had to get approval to operate outside of UK ROE, so someone must have authorised their actions within the MoD (and therefore, under Fallon's watch). Don't see an issue with it happening, just the way the minister seems to be trying to dodge the issue. Maybe the guys on exchange could ask for the host nations expenses as well as they are "foreign troops"? - UN pay anyone?
