Iraq: Peacekeeping Operations
- Question
- To ask the Secretary of State for Defence how many British soldiers have served in Iraq in the last three years.
- Answer
-
Between January 2003 and January 2007, centrally held records indicate that around 134,000 UK personnel deployed to the Joint Operational Area for Operation TELIC. Centrally held records do not indicate how long each individual spent in theatre, and these figures will include those who were making short visits in addition to those on full deployments. In addition, there may be some double-counting of personnel who have deployed more than once over the period. More detailed information could be obtained only at disproportionate cost.
