Bill Woodcock, your comments above say more about you than I ever could. Your lack of knowledge of the war in the North of Ireland is similar to that of Keith Acheson.

I understand you didn't serve as a Marine in the North, although you would like others to presume your attachment to the regiment held a combatants role when in fact it didn't. Keith, the Territorial army never served in any role in the North of Ireland.

I suggest both of you restrict your comments to that of a thread contributor and drop the persona of someone who served on the ground, just allow the likes of Dead Horse and myself to supply the first hand experiences.

Thank you.
