Spotted over at the BBC we have the MOD in a bit of a bind :

The MoD has launched an investigation after a photograph of a soldier who had an offensive message written on his kit appeared in its official magazine.

The serviceman’s left kneepad has “Get some Paki” scrawled on it. His picture featured in Soldier magazine alongside a story about new rations for troops.

“An investigation is currently underway to identify the soldier,” said the MoD.

That one will take some explaining away I think.
