Terrorist

[JR]

Snippet of information from the MOD Oracle>>>

It would appear that Russel Watton,A convicted UVF Terrorist has been elected to the committee of the County Londonderry Branch of the Royal British Legion,Ah! next I suppose he will be asking for the award of the General Service Medal and clasp for Northern Ireland.This really pisses me off,no doubt during his UVF days he was one of the 'Gang' that heaved bricks and fire bombs at the security forces the thin red line between the 'Taigs' and 'Prods'.
Anybody in the Royal British Legion out there care to comment,methinks its going to cause an uproar within the RBL this side of the water.

Your comments please, I say bin the B'stard Aye JR

Absolutely disgusting, makes you think twice about renewing your legion membership. But on the other hand (and im not sticking up for them) over here in osnabruck branch we have a large German contingent and some of them fought against us during WW2, but they do contribute to the general running and fundraising of the branch. I suppose it could help heal old wounds as the lads do integrate and they do talk about what happened and their experiences.

I just get a bit p*ssed off when they get served at the bar first (german barmaid)
