Those Royal Marines, they're real bad asses

Never forget that regardless of how silly the lefty Brits are, their military has a brilliant history that they add to every day. They lost a man in a fight in Afghanistan and were out of good answers as to how to get him out. They weren't sure if he was alive or dead, but that changed nothing, they were going in. The question was how, the answer was strapped to the outside of Apache gunships. Wow, that is a bold move. Allah at Hot Air has video.
