An unwitting British soldier who posed for a photograph with a rogue Afghan policeman was shot dead by him seconds later.
Corporal Brent McCarthy, 25, is pictured with a member of the Afghan Uniformed Police just moments before the shooting.
After the snap was taken the gunman and another accomplice turned their weapons on the RAF policeman.

Not one more drop of blood, not one more penny of treasure, for that hellhole.
The two Afghan policeman look like teenagers.
Seems like Hell is getting much, much closer to Earth these days.
I expect one day in the very near future, it’s going to be here.
The sooner they come home, the better.
What a terrible waste.
It is here already, we are just pretending it’s way over there. Time to wake up before we are eliminated by our “friends”.
“The Afghan national pictured was shot dead by a British guardsman as he tried to flee the scene.”
Go Ripley on ‘em.
air power - NO ROE’s
sort of like Germany and Japan in WW2
test failed
My feet feel hot.

Should’ve helped the Soviets there in the 1980s.
Why do the Afghans in the pictures look like they have gone to the bathroom in their pants? Weird pictures.
Because the guy knew he was about to be in a gunfight against soldiers and most likely, not live to celebrate it.
“oddly , the article does not mention what happened to the two killers”.......
The Afghan shooter met his Waterloo when he tried to escape the area. Dead!
Mine too!
And I know I ain’t at the beach!
Something wicked this way is here right now.
