very true as five of my regiment would tell you had they not been shot on the way back from the postal run.
Eh? Don't need to read back - you said he should be in prison! And I like your notion of 'terrorist support groups'. I can just imagine the phone call: "Hi, I'm Paul from the UDA Support Group. I'm collecting cash for the UDA so they can shoot Catholics. We take cash or credit/debit cards. How many bullets would you like to buy, or if you really don't like them, you could donate enough to buy a load of semtex". I think you'll find that it was most often guys with guns that 'encouraged' donations. Or guys in sunglasses & berets outside Parkhead stadium, rattling off the true but misleading mantra "For the missions". How naive are you?
Sorry to hear that Wakey. Didn't know you served. Thank you for your service. I was too unfit & too scared to even consider it. My best mate was in the Paras over there, and my step-brother was in Intelligence (was never sure if Intelligence was a part of the Scots Guards, or if he was seconded elsewhere. Hush, hush, apparently ). I did learn the 'how to find the best seat in a cafe' routine from him.
Reminds me of a game when we were kids called 'best man fall'. Ever play it? One person was appointed executioner, and you & your mates took turns at being killed, by your weapon of choice. You then had to act out a dying scene. TBF, Adryan wouldn't have taken first place, but it might have been close.
I did seven years bud but the other side try to blow you up and shoot at you.so i got out as had just got married and went on a five month tour.i was in the battery intelligence section .big camera .telescope etc and endless bloody writing.no hush hush or glamour involed.i got the hump when some paddie opened up with a thomson.we all sort of froze watching the bullets bounce up the road.then some prat did the correct thing and started to advance on the paddy.he shouted come on lads and looked around to see us all behind cover.if it starts again we are in the ****.
Would it be wrong at this time to mention that Eire was the gun toting paddy you mention? #nextmeetupshouldbefun
What a load of total ****,because I'm against your terrorist friends you think im in the UDA you need to see a doctor m8.
