Attrition of Special Forces



The Sunday Times: Reports how operational action in Afghanistan has hurt the Special Forces of the UK, the ST reports that the SAS; Special Air Service; has lost twelve soldiers in combat and seventy haven been hurt, taken them out of operations. Our Special Forces, the SAS and the SBS; Special Boat Service; are the finest and the most feared Forces of their kind in the World, the Mossad are second raters by example, but one has to ask are we losing great soldiers in a War that we cant win, the simple question is can the SAS and the SBS really take on the Taliban/Al Qaeda in the badlands of the Afghanistan and Pakistan border. This blog has its doubts.
