British Army Horse killed at Royal Gun Salute

[Goldie fish]

**** me..had there been a rider attached there would't have been as much sympathy.

I dunno murph. There was huge sympathy when the provos bombed the Life Guards in Hyde park on 20 July 1982. On that occasion four Troopers were killed, and seven horses. Most people were struck by the sight of the dead horses, and Lt Robert Lawrence, Scots Guards commented about how nurses in the hospital where he was then staying (following being Injured in the Falklands)were more concerned about the "poor horses" than his mates in uniform.

Thats my point, the horses get more sympathy that the riders.
