Yawn-O-Rama Tim. I don't give two hoots about your beef regarding 14 Int. If an organisation wants a job doing, I don't turn it down due to silly tin foil hat wearing individuals like yourself!
Funny how your so anti UK everything, but yet your location is set as London! Happy to live in the establishment you so dislike ehh!
Stop trolling, your getting very boring now!
Are you in love with Brigadier Gordon Kerr, because you seem to have this obsession with him. Well I tell you what, I not interested!
Alaska that is exactly what i meant.
yes the pic is freely available online and therefore OpSec is not an issue but Tim Horgan seems to want to reprimand me for asking him to identify the person he was referring to in the pic.
again he was only doing this to stir the sh|t.
i was having a go at Tim Horgan for trying to imply that OpSec was an issue when it blatantly did not apply in this instance, despite him posting a pic then bleating on about OpSec for the same pic, or whatever he seems to think.
RGJ, you quite clearly did not have a clue-and I left my post open just to test you on this. Considering that you claim to have spent all thse weeks in long-term OP's "facing south" I would have thought that you would have known him. I was proved right.!!

The thing about Kerr as quite clearly shown by the article is that he did not stand by his agents. Compare this with how the Russians pulled out every stop to get their 10 agents back from the US recently. And the US readily agreed because they saw an opportunity to get their people back. This is the mark of true professionals.
Kerr was- and is- intensely disliked by many in the BA. That is why he and his people are referred to as "The Green Slime". Fact is, they were just not very good at their job.
It is you who seem to have the rather sad fascination-putting their baubles on show as if we are interested- just read your own posts with grown-up eyes.

I am very happy here and have very many good friends in the BA. It is just that I do not consider a few of the people, like yourself, who come on here as being representative of the BA I know and love in any sense.
Your rather sad postings earlier on here make most professionals in the BA cringe, quite frankly.

hang on Tim, let me get this right - because i had, and still have no idea, nor the slightest interest in who the hell you are talking about - this means that you have been 'proved right' that i was not a member of a COP in Northern Ireland and i did not conduct long-term covert OP's on the border? oh yeah that makes sense Tim.
tell me Tim, why would I, a 19 year Rifleman, one of many in a Close Observation Platoon conducting CTR's and long-term covert Op's along the Irish border 20 years ago have the slightest idea who any of these individuals in 14 Int you are talking about are?
do you really think 14 Int functioned this way that EVERYONE in the Army knew who they were? i doubt anyone within my battalion, even the CO at the time knew who the members of 14 Int were. such lax unprofessionalism as knowing the identities of your covert operators (if you ever had any) may have been rife in the BSAP but not among the intelligence community in Northern Ireland at the time.
they were an undercover unit and therefore at the time their identities were known only to those within their G2 / Humint circles on a need to know basis - why the hell would i ever need to know who was in 14 Int? all i needed to know is who our targets were.
even now, i have friends who were Riflemen with me in the Green Jackets who are now part of the SAS and SRR, but i only know they are SF troops because i still keep in touch with them as friends and beyond that i would not know, nor would i want to know, nor need to know who it's members are.
my best advice to you Tim is to do us all a favour and close your account on this forum instead of constantly trying to belittle and provoke other members with your trivial dross and lies.
FFS, stop stirring the sh|t again Tim, and let people get on with good conversation instead of listening to your rantings of utter bo||ox.

Well, it seems everyone else has known who they are for years.
BTW, the CO 22 SAS and Director, Special Forces both always have Sergeant Drivers. There is a very good reason for this but I am afraid that I am not at liberty to disclose why on here.

Tim, FFS stop LYING!!!!!
i am 100% confident that hardly anyone, let alone everyone on this forum knows all the members of 14 Int for years.
i have just asked my wife to name some members of 14 Int and she doesn't know any, either does the lad from Portrush on the balcony of the apartment next to mine.
OK then, lets start a poll on this forum to see how many people know EVERYONE in 14 Int????
i'll hand on heart now tell you i know one member over the years out of hundreds.
if ANYONE can name every member of 14 Int over the years like Tim says, then please let us know!!!
and Tim, of course there are specialist cases where SNCO's drive, just like we have Corporals who fly helicopters on a daily basis but i was pointing out drivers in general are not SNCO's.
so stop trying to nit pick and belittle everything others say on here.
Tim, will you EVER stop talking shite and lying!?!??!?!?
this is ridiculous and i can't believe the MODs are letting you away with this spin.
