Grow up.
Hey, when you pass Selection you can have a go at McNab, but until then the fact remains that he was SF, and you aren't.

Are you for real?

Given your reasoning, I would like to know what you have ever done to tell me what I can and cannot say about any person I dam well please?

Arrogant little prick.


You are a bigger twat than "McNab"
No, you can say what you like, and I'm not telling you anything, I just think the fact he passed Selection deserves him some respect, that's all.

In retrospect my previous post does sound a little ballsy. So sorry.

Ghost :oops:

Hi Sticky Blue

What do the medals after your name stand for?

I hope this isn't a "have you ever shot someone" type question - if it is sorry.

The point I was trying to get across is that anyone whos served deserves respect, even though they have created unwanted publicity (Mcnab).

Mitty, the DSM/MC is an award for bravery 3rd in line after the CGM and VC.

Actually McNab has the DCM and MM which have both been discontinued, with the DSO and MC now available to all ranks.

The QGM has also disappeared, replaced with the Conspicuous Gallantry Cross which is now the level two gallantry award.

So the correct order of precedence is VC CGC DSC/MC/DFC.

And yeah im a bit of an anorak when it comes to medals lol

I tuned in to him while I was at work, he didn't make a convincing presenter, stick to books.

Andy has finally made it. My wife has just informed me that he is at this moment on Desert Island Disc.
