Amusing quote in todays Daily Mail. Comparing US and UK troop performances in Iraq following on from Rumsfelds complimentary comments of the UK forces a senior British military source said

“Quite frankly, the average British infantryman is far better. They’re a tribe of feral monsters, but they’re highly disciplined monsters. You don’t want to get in their way”

Probably applies in spades to Royal, flattery will get you anywhere!
