British withdraw to Basra airport base

 
This was the most complete info I could find, though I know it's not a great mainstream source (it's more like our People magazine here in the U.S.).  The summary is still pretty much the same as the ABC, NYT etc articles.
 
It's great to see the UK stepping up and showing how to get things done.  Hopefully we'll follow their lead and progressively hand off control as was originally described, and be available only on an as-needed basis (though our gluttony-riddled embassy would indicate otherwise).
