Standing room only at Olympics
The attendance at the Folies is so sparce that they have enlisted a
bunch of Squaddies to fill a few seats, regardless of the fact that these same Tommies were supposed to be on "Security Detail" following the failure of the official security commissar to live up to his contract. http://previous.presstv.ir/photo/201...1060101013.jpg -- Davey Crockett Flying the Flag of the English The Flag of Hengest and Horsa |

According to the article, they _were_ on duty, but the Brass had yielded to the force majeur and so instead of running security, they were filling a few empty seats.
