<< The Sunday Times ran an interesting piece on a book by a
 former SAS soldier named Tom Carew. It describes Britsh
 involvement in Afganistan 20 years ago, in one part it
 tells how a British Blowpipe missile (the first one ever
 fired in anger) missed a Russian Hind because of a negligent
 discharge - fascinating stuff. >>

Actually the 1st Blowpipe fired in anger was used by the Argentinians in 
defence of Goose Green to shoot down one of our Harriers.
