You mean for target practice ?

No, I meant what I said, "thanks". Friendly casualties are not "target practice" and have always been a part of wars. The results in this war have been a historical record low, much lower than other wars. It is an unavoidable fact that human error can't be totally eliminated. However, it can be reduced, as it has been. When there are tens of thousands of combatants and thousands of sorties flying it would be near impossible to not have some errors causing unwanted results.

Quote:

More British soldiers were killed by American fire than anything else. Perhaps we did the same back, I don't know.

Not true according to official records. With respect to UK it was something like 5 died from friendly fire, 8 from action and about a dozen and a half from accidents. This was out of 159 coalition death total on the 21st of April.
