You people talk so much shit. These men are dieing. They will never see their families again and you DARE bad moth them? As quoted in a great movie "you have the balls to face me without the balls to face the enemy" - cowards.

sorry hit enter there before i was done - Dutch Army is awsome. But how can we know who is the best unless the allies all started fighting each other ? I hope we never have to find out who is the best.

Good report. Timo wasn't the first we lost and wasn't the last. The aussies and dutch always worked great together. Same down to earth humour. Great guys.

And yes, I fought there wile Timo was flown to Holland.

Highly Traumatised.... slechte woordkeuze voor iemand die van verslaggeving z'n werk probeert te maken of hij snapt het verschil nog niet echt tussen aangeslagen, respectvol en...getraumatiseerd.

Why every one is talking about the fact that his country is having the best army??

it is the coalition that,s making the diverence and not the national army,s

No country can win in afganistan, but it is brave that these men offer there life,s fore the purpose of peace in this country

banks and money is what war is all about!! did you know that the united states spent 120 million dollars in 2008 in afghanistan to rebuild a single road? big businesses are being handed weapons contracts from the government at impossibly large sums. the only reason president bush started this war was for MONEY. the entire world is at a global recession and we are all fighting spending billions of dollars for what? the war on terror, that by definition cannot end? look at the FACTS faggot
