Commando Mark Leader has been sacked for throwing a wellington boot at a taliban terrorist, after 18 years of top quality military service,he has lost his job and pension...this is disgusting and another example of one rule for us and another for the taliban...lets get justice for this fine Royal Marine and not for the Taliban.

The court martial heard Leader and Wheelhouse later burst into a tent where 48-year-old Ekhlas was being held and struck him around the head with the rubber boot, causing a cut lip, two loosened teeth and facial bruising.
Its being played down a little isnt it?
Its wrong that he's lost so much, but its also wrong with what he's done to the prisoner?, regardless as to whether he deserves it or not.
The other guy was only a soldier, also doing his job.
Working a welly into someone's face, lossening teeth is a bit off imo

Sounds like this probably has something to do with it - 18 years in?
