Should have disarmed him and walked off leaving him to die in hindsight he was not going to live after being hit by a 30mm If you want to dig through the Geneva Convention that’s probably wrong as well.

I like you post Argonault and whatever I think I would like to place one thing on record. During the “troubles” the Fire Service were the forgotten men that were involved. From my experience they had a very hard and harrowing job and acquitted themselves in a very brave and honourable way despite that. Unqualified to comment? No I think you have as much right if not more to express your feelings

Want to tell me how you can win hearts and minds of a Country whose ideas are firmly rooted in the 14th century?

I would agree with bringing our troops home though as it is a complete waste of time and life. The Taliban will be back in power with a nicely trained and equipped ANA as soon as the infidels leave.

Anyone else think it looks like a “baby” Connie?

Quite so. I am given to understand, that they intend to bring in a Law, whereby the owners of ALL dogs will have to be Micro Chipped.

WHAT!!!! Microchipping the owners?

Tim Collins always reminds me of their regimental march. Look at the young faces who would lay down their lives for you as they always have done.Unless you have served you will never get into the mind of a soldier or the pride they have in their regiment. If you really want to get wound up about an execution I suggest you think about Lee Rigby instead. Also If you are so incensed why do you have a museum dedicated to machines that are built for the sole purpose of killing people?

At what point would you think that your ex colleagues have gone too far? ,what would it take for them to do BEFORE you said “i don’t agree with that” ?

Shooting Members of their own Regiment is a definite no in my eyes.

I think a large proportion of the population already look like that!
