As you know, from an OPSEC perspective we never talk about the numbers of wounded. We honour our soldiers who have fallen, but if we were to comment and expand upon the numbers of wounded, that would actually give the Taliban a confirmation of their success or not in different operations. That's the reason we don't do the numbers. You'll recall that once a year we put out the statistics. Then they cannot draw any substantial conclusions from the numbers who have been wounded.
