Its interesting to here the same story told by US and UK press. US press tends to forget those A-10 pilots did not get permission to fire. The UK reports tend to forget the A-10 pilots asked four times whether the tanks were friendly.

And both sides don't discuss another yet resolved question: two pilots new to combat and apparently lost; not where they thought they were.
