And they did such a good job.As i recall, a few thousand of them did the job of 10's of thousand of American troops, so that the Americans could carry out Much needed operations. As for the "insuffiecient numbers" (sufficient), they managed to keep the peace and hand over four provinces, including the second biggest city in Iraq. All while backing up The Americans....I know what you are really meaning to say is 'Thank you', but don't know how.

Three British soldiers can do the jod of 10 Americans? They should be sent to Bagdaddy to kick ass and end the war for good.

I never said they can, i said they did. They manned the roadblocks to the west of Bagdhad, while the Americans gave some much needed nose bleeds to the Enemy...i'm sure some others in teh forum could elaborate for you, but i'm kinda drunk right now.....no searching for me 😛

Ok, i believe you. I'm just asking why they are not being sent to Bagdaddy to do the samething there? It would be best for both countries, and get us out sooner.
