I can see why you would think that. Would it surprise you to know the British lost more too friendly fire [from American pilots] than from the Iraqi forces.
A very important distinction.
It may just be a difference between American and British attitudes. For one, our 'Rules of engagement' have generally been far more defined, with less room for ambiguity.

It wouldn't surprise me and I don't see how that's an important distinction. Friendly fire is also expected in wars, no matter if it's your own or an ally. Again though, I'm not being blase about it!
