Troops who won't fight sent home

A PAIR of British soldiers in the Gulf face up to two years' jail after refusing to fight.
The duo - believed to be a private and an air technician - told officers they would not take part in a war in which innocent civilians were killed.
The two men from 16 Air Assault Brigade - heavily involved in the battles in the south of Iraq - are believed to have been sent back to their barracks in Colchester, Essex.
A third serviceman faces court martial after refusing to travel to the Gulf.
Others are believed to have refused on religious grounds.
