Herbaceous you are so right and it is so wrong, but why don't they seem to care?
Total ignorance as to what it is exactly that we are supposed to be doing out there! does anyone know?
The government aren't telling anyone and we don't seem to know ourselves, what are our aims? are they achievable? have we achieved any so far?
If the public understood and backed what it was that we are doing then perhaps they would mourn each passing life a bit more, right now what happens in the back of beyond in some ****ty, dusty hell hole is much less important than the price of food, petrol and gas, very sad but true.

You served your country without question. You did what was asked of you and probably more.
There are those who should answer for these losses, but not here.
What matters at this moment is that we remember and we care and we will not forget.
God Bless You and your family. They need the support of us all.

No doubt there will be sereval of his mates also coming home having lost their lives, although they will still be living. I'm talking about the hundreds who return minus limbs, or full of shrapnel, or simply wounded mentally. Those are the ones we don't hear enough about...

I personally am immensely proud of the efforts, and sometimes ultimate sacrifices put in by you lot, and it will be a cold day in hell before anyone convinces me different (regardless of what I may think about the plankton in Westminster).
So not that it will mean Sweet FA in the whole scope of things, but you all have an appreciative friend in me. and my utmost respect.
Now excuse me and I will 'Foxtrot Oscar', before I get brutally violated for being a civvy in a military area
All the best
*EDIT* apologys I do realise this is a Military Aircrew forum, but its a general 'big up' to you all whatever part of HMF's you are in
Never mind Blair. Cyclops is publishing another book on the back of you brave guys. "Wartime Courage", published by Bloomsbury, comes out in November. Not that he will have written it of course. But don't you find it just a tad irritating that one of the major architects of cretinous foreign policy, and wanton under-funding of the armed forces in recent years, is now seeeking to make personal and political capital out of your hard work, bravery, and indeed 113 lives. Vomitworthy.
