I have just seen the Bootie on the tele who copped 4 rounds in his helmet.
Not a bloody scratch on him. Just goes to prove, that even in the 21st century, Royal still has a thick head.
Come back safely Royal

How the hell did I miss that when I have all 5 TVs covering different channels, and my eyes kept open with match-sticks!!!
He must be the Bootneck that resembles a Figure 11 target, good grouping!!

Royal always has been proud of his helmet and shows it off at every opportunity. Normally when p****d.

I remember an armourer(buggered if I can remember his name) who copped a round smack in the middle of his helmet at Springfield Rd nick it travelled round the side and popped out just before his lughole.There sure are some lucky sods around, knowing mine I would find a fiver but drop a tenner as I bent down to pick it up!

I tuned in to watch Royal's helmet get plugged and EVERY chuffing station was showing OUR 777 taxying around Edwards AFB. Is it any wonder Blair makes my blood boil? How much did that cost us, just so he could take his entourage of media luvvies to the states? Meanwhile half the poor sods in Iraq haven't got desert boots.
An' I'll tell you annuvver fing wot pisses me orft!
I posted a link to a pic of the boy's helmet with him in it
