He probably was playing "show the lowly American who has the better soldiers" routine.

There's been no shortage of articles from British papers pumping up the Brit troopers and slagging American GIs. And that attitude didn't start with this conflict.

Yes, I have seen it too, and this article is the last straw. Oh and the redneck American was 5'8, I guess all the British soldiers are 6'5 with jaws of granite. Col. Collins didn't exactly look like Arnold Schwarzenegger in Predator to me.
