Cross of St. George over Sangin, from the photo collection that came with this article from The Times (UK).
It was taken at a memorial service held at British Army base Jackson in Sangin, Afghanistan for four soldiers killed by IEDs on August 16. The soldiers killed belonged to 2 Riffles Battlegroup based in Sangin. The 2 Rifles Battlegroup include troops from 2 Rifles and 2nd Royal Regiment of Fusiliers. That is the batch that Michael Yon was working with.
Nice to see the English taking back their flag. The Scots use their's all the time - why not.
