Bayonet!
This is coolbert:
It seems I am wrong.
It seems using the bayonet in combat is not so passe' after all.
Some of you may remember my blog about this very subject. How the last bayonet charge by the U.S. Army was in 1951, during the Korean conflict. An incident which won the Medal of Honor for the man who led the charge, Captain Millet.
It seems that such a thing has happened in Iraq.
OY!!
It seems an English Corporal is a bloody hero for leading a bayonet charge.
It seems this bloke is Corporal Mark Byles, 34. Applied the "cold steel". In a fashion reminiscent of something that might have been expected of a soldier one hundred years ago.
"COLD STEEL"

"COLD STEEL"
"I slashed people, rifle-butted them. I was punching and kicking. It was either me or them. I got back to camp covered in blood from head to toe. The first thing I did was pull out a photo of my family."
"He ordered them [the troops under his command] to fix bayonets and led four men charging the drainage ditch the rebels were hiding in."
"In the trench Mark saw around a dozen armed Iraqis." [five Englishmen against a dozen Arabs. Sounds like a fair fight to me!!]
"The look on their faces was utter shock when five heavily armed men jumped in on them," he said. Mark killed three and took eight prisoners, holding them while under fire from another trench 75 yards away."
"The Army estimates around 30 rebels died in both trenches but Mark's men were virtually unscathed."
The bloody Iraqi wog blighters were caught with their pants down and paid the price. They COULD NOT BELIEVE THIS WAS HAPPENING. THEY WERE SHOCKED INTO INACTION!!!
Bravo to this chap. Extreme bravo or whatever they would call it in England!!
But this is not the end.
Consider this:
"Man jailed for plot to kill Iraq war hero"
"A market stall holder who plotted to "hunt down" and kill a decorated British soldier was jailed for six years today."
"British-born Abu Mansha, 21, obtained an address for Corporal Mark Byles after reading coverage in the Sun newspaper of how he led a bayonet charge in which he killed up to 20 Iraqi insurgents."
Some bloody twerp living in England under the PROTECTION OF THE QUEEN wants to hunt the English soldier hero down and murder him.
BRITISH-BORN!? As if that means something to the blighter.
Any person living under the protection of the Queen owes allegiance to the Queen!! [old English law!!].
Too bad Abu Mansha wasn't in that trench and gotten the bayonet in HIS gut!!
