The Ministry of Defence says it is evaluating sites for surface-to-air missiles for the Olympic Games, and could place them at residential flats.
Residents at an estate in east London have received a leaflet saying soldiers could be placed there during the Games.
It says part of an air defence system might be based at a water tower on the estate, where 700 people live.

WTF ..... and who's paying for that .....
Normally, I don't have much sympathy for Southerners, but the citizens of London are being treated like dogs by the self-interested organisers of the Olympic Games - "big business" is going to make a packet while ordinary residents will have a summer of hell .....
