The mornings are always challenging on the barricades. The British soldiers know that after a night waiting for the evacuation process to restart the tens of thousands camped on the road leading to their base will try to rush their way through.
Today it was different. Very different.
Today it turned chaotic in an instant.
Within minutes this was an emergency, nothing to do with process; the soldiers found themselves just trying to save lives.
At the front of the queue people were being crushed to death.
Paratroopers began pulling people from the mayhem, medics rushing from the next casualty to the next, then the next and the next.
Crushed, dehydrated, terrified.
Standing on top of the compound wall, soldiers sprayed the crowd with a hose - anything to cool them down.
We saw men, women, and lots and lots of children.
And then what we had all feared began to happen.
Soldiers started shouting for medics and stretchers as unconscious people were carried to the rear. The medics checked their vital signs and then covered the bodies in white sheets.
In the mayhem, units rush through crowds to shore up weak points in the evacuation centre - everyone working flat out trying to stem the tide of an unfolding disaster.
It doesn't matter where you look it's the same desperation - American soldiers, British soldiers, Spanish soldiers, German soldiers, Polish soldiers, pulling children, whole families from the pens and the crowds they've been kept behind for processing.

I was in Europe recently and watched sky news and bbc. They are both fos.
Sky marginally less so.
Europeans wanted an idiot globalist potus. They got it.
Be careful of what you wish for. You may get it.
The JoeBama regime has created a giant clusterbuck and now it’s the British who are the only ones helping to evacuate? Where are the Americans? This country has been humiliated by a fake election and a fake president.
These people should have been flown out before the troops left.
What is “fos”?
Biden says this was 4-5 days ago! Cmon man!
Yes. What kind of plan did Biden have that leaves a large number of average people left behind in danger and the rugged, physically trained soldiers get to leave first?
That's like firefighters making sure they get back to the fire house and listening to cell phone reports of the residents staggering out of the burning apartment building to find out if they made it.
fos = full of sh##
FOS = Full of excrement = All the “experts” these days....
*****
At DIE training dontcha know!
Or the ever popular FOC. Full of crap.
Dear Europe: you didn’t want that mean guy who said you have to pay your fair share, you didn’t like his boldness, you wanted “refinement” and someone who was you’re definition of “presidential”. Well, you got your wish........and the world weeps.
Any military resignations offered yet? Didn’t think so.
Full of blank
This is when all Americans should start to pray that this is the very worst thing that happens while Joe Biden is president. After all, he’s got 3 1/2 years left...
How long before these latest events are blamed on Trump. His rally will be great today.
FOS...full of crap.
I think I saw one that blamed Trump and another that blamed ... wait for it ... global warming. I don't have the links though.
THE EVIL DEMOCRATS elected this pos...they got what they voted FOR !
Agreed. Sky News has a roku app and is viewable in the US. I watched it a few minutes the other day and that was all I could take.
