ARMY MAJOR SLAMS 'WHINGEING' GALLAGHER
LATEST: A British Army major has hit back at NOEL GALLAGHER after the OASIS rocker insisted British soldiers serving in Iraq shouldn't be allowed to seek compensation if they are wounded.
Earlier this month (DEC06), Gallagher sparked controversy by claiming troops have no right to seek compensation because they are "loving it until they get shot".
But Major BEN WRENCH of the Black Watch battalion hits back at the mouthy rocker, saying, "If we were all getting pop star wages, maybe we would have the luxury of whingeing a lot more.
"I would caution anyone about passing comment on the servicemen and women who are injured in the line of duty. Yes, we volunteer to join the Army and of course everyone is aware of the operational risks.
"But no, we don't volunteer to be blown up by roadside bombs, to be killed or maimed and to lose limbs. I don't think anybody who has been injured could be accused of whingeing."
