That is amazing. Thanks for posting this story.

Think of how stupid the average person is and realize that statistically half of them are stupider than that.

Yeah. Give it some time, and some wanker will try to denigrate their ass.

I wonder if the Iraqi's would return the favor. I can't agree with anyone who says are soldiers aren't the best in the world.

You know, it's nice to see how many of you Yanks stick up for your soldiers. I'm truly proud of what our soldiers do for us in our name (well, usually in the name of the faceless politicians), but it's a real shame to see how few in the UK seem to care about supporting our troops over here.

It's sickening to see how badly treated our troops are - terrible pay, no benefits, crap accomodation, outdated and shoddy equipment.. and the sickening thing to me is seeing how many brits just say 'well, they knew what they were getting in to when they signed up, they should stop complaining'. Makes me just want to hit them!

I can understand that one completely, as does Vortexring.

Dateline, I believe, did a feature on this story. Amazing how many people put it all on the line to save this guy. Great story.

The most terrifying words in the English language are: I'm from the government and I'm here to help.

I am stationed in Iraq. The other day I was talking to a group of British soldiers. I was astonished to hear that they are not allowed to wear their uniforms off base! They get harrassed if they wear uniforms in public.

I do not understand that. Not everyone in the US agrees with why we are here, but at least we are supported (people shaking our hands in airports etc).

My hat is off to the British soldiers. They still have a great attitude and are a lot of fun to work with.

Are you referencing all uniforms, including tailored uniforms or just cammies?

Some people refrain from beating a dead horse. Personally, I find a myriad of entertainment value when beating it until it becomes a horse-smoothie.
