An Australian SAS Trooper kelled in Afgahnistan, even the Worlds crack SAS Troops are at risk.?

Question

So the SAS both Australian and Brittish are among the Worlds crack troops, Supermen in their own rights and extream Endurance athletes. It's terrible and amazing how even the Best Troops are susceptible to an ambush and how a Talliban low life can neutralise a legend ! RIP.

Answer 1

The kind of operations a special forces member does is probably the most dangerous type of combat work available. We should be thankful our casualties aren't even proportionally similar to our British and American comrades.

Answer 2

There is nothing Terrible or Amazing about it.

They are Human beings not supermen

When your Maker calls you home, even they answer.

You can only beat the clock for so long.

Death is the number one great leveler, kings and peasants fall beneath his hand like ripe corn under the scythe.

PS by the way the word id "killed" not kelled.

Answer 3

Unfortunately when you fight on someone's turf, you are always at a disadvantage, no matter how trained you are. I have a lot of respect of SAS troops in terms of their training. I give them credit for helping the U.S. develope their own special forces units.

Answer 4

It really is a sad, sad situation. No matter what your opinion on war, it can not be denied that no-one should ever need to hear that their husband/wife/dad/mum/son/daughter has been killed in a foreign country and will never be coming home.

My hear goes out to this man's friends and family...

Lest we forget

Answer 5

There at war, and there is unfortunately no surprise that they can be killed, no matter what troop there from or how good a solider they are! May he rest in peace and condolences to his family

Answer 6

Another soldier who has done the Anzac legend proud as all our soldiers do my heart goes out to his family.
Lest we Forget.
