Ahem! Scots Guards & Hong Kong Chinese laundrymen (several of whom were killed in action in the Falklands)
The two battalions of the Parachute Regiment that saw action in the Falklands contained men from both the Isle of Man and quite a few Channel Islanders.

Action needed to avert dangers of lithium battery use
Lithium is the green future. It seems there is little doubt about that.
If you have a portable drill, leaf blower, mobile phone or laptop, chances are that it is powered from a lithium battery which will require regular charging by plugging into a mains socket.
Lithium batteries are, of course, also the power source for the increasingly popular electric bikes and scooters. They are the powerhouse of the fast-food delivery industry.
But, as reporter Mary Ward reveals in The Sun-Herald today, there is an emerging issue around the safety of the battery chargers.
Sydney fire crews were called to three incidents within 24 hours last week. A two-storey home was destroyed when the lithium battery of an e-bike left on charge exploded.
Hours later fire crews avoided disaster in a shop by dumping a garbage bin of water over an overheating e-scooter after a service technician apparently used the wrong charger. Then on Friday morning, an e-bike with a home-made charger caused another blaze.
NSW fire crews have attended at least 40 fires caused by lithium-ion batteries in e-bikes and e-scooters this year, up from 22 across all of 2022. We have already doubled the number of battery initiated fires with two months of the year to go.
The issues, demonstrated in just three incidents, suggest that leaving these batteries on extended charge, use of an incorrect charger and even improvising with home-made chargers are all inviting trouble.
In a report released earlier this month, the Australian Competition and Consumer Commission (ACCC) said it was concerned about lithium-ion batteries overheating or exploding, particularly when chargers were mixed and matched, or being left running after a device had fully charged.
A spokesperson said the ACCC had received 254 product safety reports about lithium-ion batteries since April 2017. While only 19 of these were related to e-bikes and e-scooters, six of those reports have been received since March.
It is understandable that there is a temptation to cut financial corners with cheaper products. \
Quality products have safety switch-off features to prevent overheating but fire crews talk of an increasing number of “thermal runaway incidents”, where a lithium battery overheats to the point of explosion, emitting toxic gas. The fires are prone to reignite once extinguished.
“It’s explosive force, it’s a jet reaction,” Fire and Rescue NSW superintendent Adam Dewberry explained. “A jet flame comes out, an intense jet flame.”
We fully support the view of Dewberry who has urged users to check they are using the right charger voltage for their battery, to not purchase cheap replacement chargers online, and to avoid over-charging devices or charging devices overnight while they sleep.
Last month, the NSW parliament’s joint standing committee on road safety rightly announced it would conduct an inquiry into the hazards posed by such batteries.
NSW Minister for Better Regulation Anoulack Chanthivong said Fair Trading worked with Fire and Rescue to inspect e-bikes, and was monitoring products available on the market, with the power to investigate if they were deemed unsafe.
It would seem that tighter regulation of the supply of cheap and unbranded batteries and chargers obtainable over the internet is one area for future scrutiny. There is no excuse for further loss of property, or, worse still, life.
We applaud initial moves by authorities to monitor this emerging issue and urge the implementation of further policy measures to ensure the safety of the community.
Sounds like Chicago gang-bangers on a P&O cruise around Flo’dah to me.
We don’t have to do that. We simply have to trust them not to do us wrong but perhaps that is just semantics. The book, The WEIRDEST People in the World, undoubtedly upsets some with a pessimistic view of modern society because it highlights how modern societies were built on values that transcended clans, tribes, and nations. Highly regarded, a best seller. A key principle is impersonal prosociality. I thoroughly enjoyed reading it which is rare for me now; too old, too cynical. The author is a professor and chair of the Department of Human Evolutionary Biology at Harvard University.
I like the ideas expressed in that book. It highlights my previous assertion that understanding human behavior requires multiple perspectives. That book provides a valuable historical analysis of how changes in society long ago had such a striking influence on modern behavior; especially economic behavior.
Sal, I think you might have to get the Big Moral Equivalence Fire Truck out of the shed for this one.

The down side to e-bikes that has caught everyone by surprise
A fire sparked by a faulty lithium battery at the Mad Monkey backpackers in Potts Point earlier this month.
There has been a string of fires caused by faulty or misused e-bike chargers, with fire crews called to three incidents within 24 hours last week.
‘An intense jet flame’: Warning after spate of Sydney e-bike fires
Regulators, governments and strata schemes are grappling with how to manage a rise in fires caused by faulty or misused e-bike chargers after Sydney fire crews were called to three incidents within 24 hours in the past week.
A two-storey home was destroyed when an e-bike lithium battery that had been left on charge exploded in Oyster Bay on Thursday.
Hours later, quick-acting fire crews avoided disaster in a Burwood shop by dumping a garbage bin of water over an overheating e-scooter after a service technician used the wrong charger.
On Friday morning, an e-bike with a homemade charger caused another blaze in Wentworthville.
NSW fire crews have attended at least 40 fires caused by lithium-ion batteries in e-bikes and e-scooters this year, up from 22 across all of 2022.
Lithium batteries are used to power portable rechargeable electronic devices, such as mobile phones, laptops, solar panels and e-bikes.
While quality products have safety switch-off features to prevent overheating, there have been an increasing number of “thermal runaway incidents”, where a lithium battery overheats to the point of explosion, emitting toxic gas. The fires are prone to reignite once extinguished.
“It’s explosive force, it’s a jet reaction,” Fire and Rescue NSW Superintendent Adam Dewberry explained. “A jet flame comes out, an intense jet flame.”
Shocking vision of an e-bike battery explosion was captured on CCTV inside Mad Monkey backpackers in Kings Cross earlier this month. Photographs from a fire at Darlinghurst two weeks later show a burnt-out unit where an e-bike was charging.
Dewberry urged users to check they were using the correct charger voltage for their battery, to not purchase cheap replacement chargers online and to avoid over-charging devices or charging devices overnight while they sleep.
In a report released earlier this month, the Australian Competition & Consumer Commission said it was concerned about lithium-ion batteries overheating or exploding, particularly when chargers were mixed and matched and left running after a device had fully charged.
A spokesperson said the ACCC had received 254 product safety reports about lithium-ion batteries since April 2017. While only 19 related to e-bikes and e-scooters, six of those reports have been received since March.
Last month, the NSW parliament’s joint standing committee on road safety announced it would conduct an inquiry into hazards posed by electric and hybrid vehicle batteries. Submissions close on November 24.
NSW Minister for Better Regulation Anoulack Chanthivong said Fair Trading worked with Fire and Rescue to inspect e-bikes and was monitoring products available on the market, with the power to investigate if they were deemed unsafe.
“This is an emerging challenge and we’re working through the ACCC’s report, as are other jurisdictions across the country,” he said.
Fire risks from e-bikes are also a new issue for Sydney’s apartment complexes, said Stephen Brell, president of the NSW branch of the Strata Community Association.
Brell said he was not aware of strata schemes that had enforced by-laws around e-bike charging or banned the devices.
“We recommend strata managers work with specialist fire services to ensure that any additional safety protocols are appropriately implemented, including guidelines specific to a given scheme that may help to mitigate risk,” he said.
“As this is an emerging issue, legislators are a little way behind. What we may see it transpire is insurers [for strata schemes] placing restrictions on e-bikes and e-scooters.”
Bicycle NSW chief executive Peter McLean, himself an e-bike rider, said the fire risk posed by faulty chargers was “undoubtedly an issue”.
“We have to make sure we are using either the Australian or European standard [of charger],” he said.
While it would be ideal for e-bike riders to be able to access safe, public charging infrastructure, McLean said this was more difficult for e-bikes than electric vehicles.
“There is a different charger for every brand and they change them all the time,” McLean said, instead advocating for import restrictions on cheap chargers and better surveillance of cheap e-bike hire companies.
Dr Lee Roberts, a researcher at UNSW’s City Futures Research Centre, agreed there needed to be better regulation of cheap imported batteries and chargers, which were easily available online.
A survey of e-bike riders conducted by the research centre last year found more than 90 per cent charged their bikes at home.
“Safe storage is a big issue for e-bikes – their high cost, and the relative ease of stealing batteries, make parking on the street unviable,” Roberts said, adding that this contributed to the risk of indoor battery fires

Let them brew their witches brew.
Why would you ‘take shelter’ at what everyone must know is hamas headquarters, in the north.
As for casualty figures, 1500 hamas fighters killed inside Israel but very coy about how many killed in IDF raids targeting hamas sites in Gaza, could it be they are lying?
It’s also very obvious hamas are preventing foreign passport holders from leaving Gaza, the border is opened to let trucks in, Hamas has released four Israeli hostages for propaganda purposes then, no-one.
If they can escort out two by two they can escort out anyone they want.
Mohamed al-Talmas, who has taken shelter in Gaza’s biggest hospital Shifa, said “the ground shook” with intense Israeli raids.
