“This time, we held nothing back. We went to war, and with every single weapon we fucking well had at our disposal. None of this peacekeeping one-arm-behind-our-backs shit any more.

Full credit to the Slipper City planners, they did some serious telephoning around before this one began. Everybody we knew was invited to the party. The battalion's A Company..., who had been sitting down in Basra as a reserve force for the division, were called up for it.

The tankies were delighted. It meant they could bin the poxy Snatch Land Rovers that they hated and get back to doing what they did best.
