This is more of a statement than a question. It goes out to all my fellow brits who are jumping all over this and using it as an excuse to bash the whole of the American forces. It's a damn shame that things like this happen, but when the adrenalin is pumping you have to expect mistakes to be made, it just so happens that in war the mistakes are deadly. Those pilots probably should face some sort of inquest, but not to punish them, more so to fnd out how we can stop things like this happening again. They have to live with what they did, and that is going to be so hard for them. Anybody who thinks that they fired on friendlies and don't suffer psychologically from it is a hard hearted fool. So please fellow anglo's, please stop bashing on Americans because of this, it doesn't serve our countries or alliance, which for 70 years plus has been the greatest on earth, at all. United we stand, United we should fall. Churchill said, "Together there is nothing we can't accomplish".
