The bodies of two servicemen killed in a so-called green on blue attack in Afghanistan have been repatriated today. Lieutenant Edward Drummond-Baxter and Lance Corporal Siddhanta Kunwar were both from 1st Battalion The Royal Gurkha Rifles based in the Nahr-e Saraj district of Helmand. They were shot at a checkpoint by a man dress in an Afghan police uniform on October 30. A C17 brought them home to RAF Brize Norton where their families have gathered for private ceremonies.
