I've been following this recently and I'm waiting to read more on the subject. I have the utmost respect for the Royal Marines and wish them the best of luck.
The military in both countries are hamstrung by pc p-ussies who have probably never heard a shot fired in anger. Chit happens in war zones; if you are going to nit pick every decision of every troop in the area you better start embedding "political correctness" officers with the guys outside the wire. I volunteer all these azz clowns who come up with these bizarre ROEs. Might see some inprovement in the investigations at least.

This is a shame and a travesty.

I heartily agree with all of the above comments.
On a different note may I belatedly wish your Corps a Very Happy Birthday

This is my first post. The units I was in a number of years ago had the highest regard for our brothers "across the pond." They were an absolute inspiration.
War is never clean. I support the Marines that are being court martialed for topping this taliban. Who would know better than the Marines in the field? I also have to say that taking a dump on the enemy sends a good message to them. Those Marines need to be acquitted and sent back to duty.
Neither the Royal Marines or US Marines need "commissars" lurking in the field for political correctness! There is nothing PC about war.
