How British Women Treat Their Wounded Soldiers

This is absolutely disgraceful. It's a relief to see that the Admiral is not mincing words or making excuses for these vile, despicable creatures: "Injured soldiers who lost their limbs fighting for their country have been driven from a swimming pool training session by jeering members of the public. The men, injured during tours in Iraq and Afghanistan, were taking part in a rehabilitation session at a leisure centre, when two women demanded they be removed from the pool. They claimed that the soldiers 'hadn't paid' and might scare the children. The incident has sparked widespread condemnation. Adml Lord Boyce, a former head of the Armed Forces, said last night the women should be 'named and shamed'. 'These people are beneath contempt and everything should be done to get their names and publish them in the press,' he said. 'It is contemptible that people who have given up their limbs for their country should be so abused when they are trying to get fit again.'"
