    I remember when two of Olive's guys got killed \ IED coming back from the Airport in Telic4, their companions did report that one UK c/s drove past them without stopping. This was very badly thought of by all levels.

    I imagine there's scope for the sponsoring PMC to come to a financial arrangement with US/UK/other forces to obtain that sort of cover. If they want it to be a business, let it be a business - perhaps make sure it's in the original contract, if they're operating directly for HMG or agencies thereof. Don't think it's entirely reasonable on the PMC's behalf to assume they'll be covered/supported/extracted - although I guess most folk will do what they can for them if at all possible.
