Re: Where do you draw the line?

well C'mon....you seem to have got to grips with full stops. Now, would you like to move on to capital letters?

Back on thread.....the point you make is not the issue here.
Some political party took us into an unwinnable conflict.......a conflict that other forces(like the Russians) gave up as a bad job.
The Army are sent where they are sent...they do not choose. They have a job to do and they do it well.
It is inevitable that things like this will happen, but I do agree that the chap needs help and that he should not be charged. After 15 years of service in theatres of war he is a damaged man...and has to live with that.
