Tired out!

Tough day at the office? These guys were on the last plane back to the U.K. after evacuating over 14,500 people during the Kabul Airlift.

Not all heroes wear capes!

I love the shared seat belt.

Heroes all of them and it was all for nothing! https://www.yahoo.com/news/british-military-officer-biden-more-011700078.html?guccounter=1

It was never for nothing. Heroism, self sacrifice and bravery are never for nothing. OK, the objective of ending the Taliban was not met and could never have been achieved. But every death and drop of blood shed demonstrated the highest form of human endeavour and the outcome has no bearing on it.
My heart goes out to the families of all who died, and to every one injured, physically and mentally by it all; for their sake we cannot ever conceive that their sacrifice was a “waste.”
The whole plan was deeply flawed, but Lions led by Donkeys does not make them any less Lions.

The only country to win a war against terrorism was the UK and that was in Malaya many years ago. No other country has been successful against terrorism!
