Heard on the news that a British troop-transport helocopter crashed. Capacity is something like 130 people. They are being pretty tight-lipped about the number of casualties. If the number is high, the Brits are liable to make moises about their troop commitment. Losing the support of your number one ally would be bad. My guess is that the market would take a very dim view of a loss of support for the war in England.
Really seems to be suspect that there is no casualty number yet.
