The government and MoD have yet agian failed in the duty of care.
If this was a law suit under helth and safety they would be guilty.
This is an absoluty disgusting failure to provide those loyal to the country with the equipment to do a dangerous job.
It just is not worth joining the forces these days.

Government and MoD should be put on trial for murder.
All this but I susupect their gin cabinets were full.
We're all doomed!
Head for the hills before they start heading for you!

Not surprising perhaps but I agree with you. Too many of these stories of inappropriate and/or insufficient kit have been forthcoming. The same happened during the 'Gulf War'. The MoD and by extension the Government as a whole have broken trust with these young men and women and should be held to account.
