    one thing i notice is , the tv production company hoped to follow 4 lads from start to finish. Obviously 2 bailed some they lost half the show. From a company of 120 bods, every single one turned down the company. They were forced to follow the OC to make the end of the series. something in that

Going by your logic the closest medic being british should either leave you cause ur a big boy or rub it in your face, bloody G.I Joe wannabe
      Why is it the British army that are requested to train forces around the world and not American?
