A former Chinook pilot is sueing the MOD for damage allegedly caused by his supplied body armour. Link from the Telegraph, the story is reported in other papers.

"Louis Warburton was forced to wear 20-kilogram body armour when flying Chinook helicopters during the UN-backed Operation Newcombe, which he says pressed against his thighs, damaging his sciatic and femoral nerves, causing intense pain and numbness. He was medically discharged from the RAF and says that the pain has affected his daily activities, including his sex life with his partner."
