    Is getting on my tits

    The story is supposed to be about the troops, not Ross Kemp

    But on the other hand he is at least bringing attention to the folks in gooksville

    Mouse, sorry mate, don’t take this the wrong way, but I must say the lads look like a bunch of ammateurs, or they are totaly constrained.

    I have no doubt about the spirit, but Jebus, they break so many of the rules that I know, FFS, it peeves me intensely. Come on, has no one learn’t anything?

    FFS. Tactics are piss poor, no offense

    I think the troops look like their hands are tied by having to look after such a vast area with so few troops. As a result they are defending static positions, handing the initaitive to the Tallietubbies. They just do not have the numbers to do enough aggressive patrolling to keep the Tallies on the back foot.

    Looks like a typical political cock up, give the blokes a mission but not the resources to achieve it. Also, by roting ynits every 6 months the new lot have to re-learn everything the returning unit has learn’t. I reckon it would be best to withdraw troops from all other deployments and send the entire army to Afganistan.

    Grrr, sorry, Just ross kemp getting on my tits

    Grrrrrr, if there was any army that I would rely on it would be the Brits, but jaysus, whats happening lads, looks grim ffs

    love or hate ross kemp this is probably the most useful insight into what it might be like to get the shit shot out of you!!

    i was very concerned that the tactic for attacking a village was to walk towards it and wait for someone to start shooting at you.. then call in the americans.. then go and clean up the mess provided that the americans didnt hit you instead!

    good tv but scary to see what things are like out there.
