Ok. My friend and I and retiring to a local hostelry, we will no doubt converse further at a later hour. At our intended inn they serve a brew of repute which is understood to be of a high quality. Please do misunderstand the questionable comments of my friend from these parts. Followed by comments of mirth.Archie wrote:Translation?

No need to get silly Mick, it's what in Australia and the RM is known as affectionate banter. By the way, most Bootnecks will quite happily tell you that Chris Ryan is a Geordie Bastard, and a f@#k up to boot.
Honesty, the best policy.

You of course are qualified to make that comment having been there when he F@#ked up, I have said it before if you were not there at the time YOU don't know s**T, but as a moderator and self styled (El Prez) you obviosly feel free to spout sh*t about anyone you choose.
I am not a GEORDIE I am however a Northumbrian and do take offence when southern Jessies start running off at the mouth about things they have only heard about,why do you suppose HEARSAY is inadmissable as evidence in court ,I just wish i was half as good as you obviosly think you are,a ledgend in your own mind no doubt. "most Bootnecks" you think for them do you,that would explain a lot.
No sticky I am not biting some people hide behind banter to stick the knife in, in his case it's most likley still got butter on it .

Firstly 'El Prez' is a self deprecating joke. You haven't seen some of the things I've written about which preceeded the name change. I'm not a southern jessie, actually I'm a Dublin Nelly.

Re Ryan. His initial service background was Army infantry. Generally the RM look down on basic infantry tactics and abilities, due to the training we receive and the continuation training/experience gained in Commando units we consider ourselves better qualified. Consequently when we see an extreme example of a cock up such as that described in B20 we (I use 'we' because most of the people I know said the same thing) were embarrassed that such an 'elite' unit should find itself in such an impossible scenario. I have said before that the courageous member of the Sqn was the officer who loaded his team back on the chinook and bugged out.
During B20 we read about situations on the ground and tactics that left me wandering who is the expert. Yes Ryan and some of his team escaped. Yes it was an epic escape and evasion run; but should it have been necessary? Were the initial tactics wrong? Was the ground suitable for the task? Many questions, differing opinions. I wrote what I and many other of my contempories felt. So if you want to have a bash, dig out.
There is one main point which I hold against Ryan. He wrote his book. By so doing he broke the code. He opened the floodgates and exposed himself to the criticism of the knowledgeable, and the awe of the walters.
On the point of Geordie Bastards. My very good friend Rotary Booty is a Geordie, a very proud Geordie; he was the bastard that put me and my contempories throught the wringer with monotonous regularity. In Australia, to be awarded the nomencalture 'Bastard' is an honour, one I have borne for some time.
Group Hug.
