1. The #BritishMilitary here at #KabulAirport have shown breathtaking levels of toughness, professionalism and - rare in war times I must say - compassion. I've been moved to tears by their actions, diving into dangerous crowds to pull visa-holders into the base....
2. ...guarding sleeping women and children, helping them find the right transportation to the US air strip for their flights, pulling their own food out of their pockets and handing it to refugees in need, sleeping out on the cement, little supplies, parched in the sun...
3. ....there are young men here who have lost their voices days ago, sunburned faces, dusty uniforms, exhausted, still working to help people in what is. humanitarian mission few soldiers are really prepared for....
4.... They are strict about not being filmed, so I don't have many pics and videos sadly, but plenty of notes and memories of kindness and bravery. "We want to help people too," one of them told me when I thanked him....

Our guys refuse to be seen in public because they’re all wearing the same outfit. Welcome to Biden’s Woke, feminized Military.
Your guys are tough as nails and as brave as lions.
It’s the woke upper echelon (and of course your abysmal CinC) who are the problem.
Lions led by the Donkey Party.
Agree. Although ours aren’t much better but they at least let the guys do their jobs.
I’d also like to give a shout out to the heroism of the Afghan commandos.
They only ever made up 7% of Afghan ground forces, but did all the fighting and most of the dying.
They had the Taliban on the run (yes really!) - but then Biden betrayed them.
Now they are (mostly) in Baghlan province fighting the Taliban, and waiting for Biden to find some other way to screw them over.
I hear that. And not just political purging.
IIRC the FDA are pushing for full approval of the ‘vaccines’, which may mean that your soldiers will have to accept injection with these dangerous, poorly tested therapeutics or leave.
Hope De Santis or Trump get to clean house.
Agree also.
From your mouth to Gods ear. We need to stop the purging of the military.
It’s a bit karmic as the British are being paid back for their country’s collusion with the fraudulent Russia/Steele dossier attacking Candidate Trump.
Bollocks. Idiot.
I give it another couple of months and the left coast will make a movie of our exit from Afstan.
Thought Biden was suppose to speak at 4 pm.
You’re too kind.
Hi.
Good to see the UK and France actually doing something.
Biden needs a nap, and Milley is reading the “Communist Manifesto,” by Marx and Ingels
My country is in great jeopardy.

I trained with these guys, they are tough cookies, no B.S. That was 50 years ago, not too sure about the toughness of our guys right now I am afraid to say. I think training has been downgraded and to much emphasis on diversity and social nonsense. But what do I know , I’m just an old fogey.
