BEWARE the backdrop for Ali Baba and all such scenery at Darlington Civic Theatre.
The “mosques” at the Army ranges in Catterick have simply set the scene, not depicting mosques as targets but showing normal NATO target groups with “No Shoot” zones at their left and right hand limits, imaginatively depicted as easternstyle buildings.
Mosques would have a crescent and star symbol atop the roof. Saleem Khan and his associates appear bigoted and ridiculous (Echo, April 9).
Gentlemen you have made a laughing stock of yourselves You owe greater respect to heroes doing your fighting for you.
It is to make troops aware of “No Shoot” situations that this mock up was designed. Well done the Army, inspired imaginative thinking.
Gerard Wild, Richmond.
