[edit] 66th Berkshire Regiment

According to the Independent on Sunday (8th June 2008, p18, "Soldiers in Helmand unearth British rifles lost in 1880 massacre", http://www.independent.co.uk/news/world/asia/soldiers-in-helmand-unearth-british-rifles-lost-in-1880-massacre-842497.html), members of the regiment made a last stand in a walled garden in Khig, with the last 11 charging the Afghans. Is this worth a mention, or is this sourced elsewhere?Pluke (talk) 14:29, 8 June 2008 (UTC)
