Britain's war in Afghanistan: life and death on the M*A*S*H shift
Here we have a picture of reality, actually a slide show with narration from our friends the British.

As Prince Harry is delayed on his bid to join the battle, other Brits are serving those who are injured - on both sides of the conflict - because it is what they do. Wouldn't it be nice if we could all stop fighting and use or willing troops to combat other enemies like natural disasters, poverty, and disease?
Instead of combat fighters we would develop armies of medics. On any given week their are natural tragedies enough to busy this re-deployed and re-assigned body of men and women to help rather than hurt.
