Five other Spanish troops were hurt when a second Puma helicopter made an emergency landing, it said. Some reports blamed mechanical failure but Madrid said it could not rule out that the incident near Herat, western Afghanistan, was caused by enemy fire. The helicopters were on a training exercise ahead of parliamentary elections, officials said. http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/world/south_asia/4155916.stm Dear List Members, Dasha is Ra/Ra/Ke/Sa/Ju.
