Interesting item on Channel 4 News Thursday evening showing a patrol by UK
army in ISAF using what looked like 100 Amazons in Afghanistan's northern
mountains. Some rough stuff that ended-up with them taking to horses. The
journalist highlighted a 'vehicle's battery failure' which looked like an
overworked battery after using the winch to recover another from a river at
night. Also of a failure of the power steering on one, but did remark that
it was a minor issue when compared with their professional tasks. Twice he
cynically referred to 'the so called all-terrain vehicle'. Perhaps he is a
LR Freelander specialist ;o)
Good footage though.
