Ross Kemp in Afghanistan [Brits at war and what they REALLY think about the Americans]
You Tube ^

Posted on 02/16/2008 7:52:56 AM PST by UKrepublican

This is an extraordinary series on over here at the moment which shows extremely closeup, the fight our folks are in.

Fastforward to 7:20 as he speaks to 5 platoon, who had recently lost three soldiers in a blue on blue incident where an American plane had dropped a bomb on some of our guys.

They are asked of what they think of the Americans. The response they give may surprise you. All the more incredible, consider some of these guys have lost their best friends in these incidents.

Please take the time to watch this, it is facinating.

Some sections of our media are a disgrace and one even had the nerve to actually NAME pilots involved and tried to track them down. I wish upon that - those journalists were locked up and eventually executed. Harsh? I call it treason on their part. We're in this fight together - such an assault against the US as is good as treason against my own country.

Outstanding! Now THAT’s the British Army that I luv and respect, and those young soldiers at the end of the piece clearly “get it” when it comes to the accidents of war and the media’s insatiable need for scapegoats.

I love Ultimate Force myself. Ross "Henno Garvie" is one tough dude in that series.

Wasn't Henno a Sargeant Major or some other high end NCO? I will have to pull the discs out and watch them again. It has been a while.
