Cpl Jake Hartley, 20 Pte Anthony Frampton, 20 Pte Christopher Kershaw, 19 Pte Daniel Wade, 20 Pte Daniel Wilford, 21 Sgt Nigel Coupe, 33 No age at all, RIP lads.
Those young boys and girls are buying our safety with their lives. We owe their families a debt that can never be paid. Thankyou, your sacrifice means my children can sleep safely in their beds.
The bravery of these people makes me feel very humbled, even more so when people my own age and younger put their lives on the line for our country. Very sad news, RIP.
R.I.P. Lads. at times i wonder just why they are out there and if its all worth it. but thats a whole new can of worms.
Rest in peace - one of them was about to become a father as well. They've made the ultimate sacrifice.
