Pass on the ausies.....

As for the Brits, ever since Bloody Sunday our rules of engagement have been very rigerous. It's a difference in attitude and training.

American armed forces are drilled in the 'protect your buddies' ethos: thus, any perceived is responded to with lethal force. The UK armed forces are proabally more mindful of the risk to civilian and non-combatant casualities due to the the fact that much of their battle experience occurred within the UK.
