Definitely plausible that the Brits were involved in the planning, reconnaissance and surveillance by its Special Boat Service. The actual dunking was done via the Yanks - they have more equipment and weapons.

Since there was basically zero risk of casualty, I would want to be involved if I were the Brits. Exercises can do only so much. There is no substitute for a real op. Like there is no substitute for actual combat. Ask any experienced soldier.

It was a priceless experience.

"Many Ukrainians could “freeze to death” ....good, hope they will be told that this is normal, same we, europeans, are told by the EU commision that we (should) do this, freeze and less but expensive gas and electricity because of "solidarity" with ukraine . For a piece of sausage bad cooked, let's throw away all the pig.

Their president is a comedian and the Kiev mayor is a boxer. Don't they have any serious leaders over there?

No, serious leaders are not part of this deal, they are not allowed in the "club". The "president" is a puppet of US, he is not in charge, never have been, look who is running the show and who is running the show in europe too.

You can talk: do you have serious leaders? :)

... a very suspiciously rich comedian at that.

Funny enough, he does NOT look nor sound funny! (Some are natural-born comedians, like Lou Costello and that Fatso Hardy.)
