How many weeks' holiday a year are there?
reosto himalaya Across the road from the 27th Brigade, commanders at another base, the 17th Thunderbolt Special Forces Brigade, are sanguine about British training. Older hands remember that the west has a history of changing sides. In the 1980s the US bombed Gaddafi and there was Lockerbie and the killing of Yvonne Fletcher. Then Tony Blair turned Gaddafi from a foe to an ally, before the west changed again, bombing his forces in the 2011 revolution. The most famous recruit trained, in three bases in England in the 1960s, was Gaddafi himself. All of which leaves some wondering how long western support will last.
