A fearless stand-up person. My deepest respect is yours, and R.I.P. Thank you for your bravery in what you did in life. Only a rare man is as courageous as yourself.
My grandad served during the Second World War in the Pacific with you Aussies. He said you guys would go to the wall for us Brits, he had nothing but the utmost respect
John Macaleese had a very tough childhood and upbringing deprived even ...yet he passed the toughest test the British army if not the world has to offer to become a SAS soldier and went on to serve with distinction ....why is it that those kids today who have very tough lives and childhoods choose apathy , sitting on their arses on the dole , smoking weed and playing on their X boxes all day , turn to crime etc and complain about "poor them " we have no youth clubs , no prospects etc ??? it really is all about attitude and mindset and nothing to do with your personal poor circumstances and John Macalleese and many like him in the armed forces are living proof of that .
JGW 97 there was no proof either and abit of an coincidence that they found it after his sons funeral and again if you read between the lines they had literally no evidence they went through three of his residences found nothing and to answer your question if it was a relative of mine they would be disowned in a heart beat no matter what honor they had
This might sound facile, but seriously; I hope the MoD kept some of Staff Sergeant MacAleese's DNA for when the UK perfects human cloning. Imagine breeding an army of these men?
@@danny8468 he was due to go court but passed away....everyone knows he was guilty.lol....why he did who knows....but been a tough bastard doesn't equate to been a good human....just like been a political leader doesn't mean your a moral leader....he obviously had a dark side as many military men often do...maybe the anti society lifestyle takes its toll...who knows but these people are not saints they are trained killers and trained killers can turn evil...
This is what you call a man who is way and above a soldier this is the type of man n men we have in the British sas the best in the world this is the sort of man that gets sent someware n if he got cort the government would deny knowing him like a complete nobody . These are the sort of men that av been about for years n the reason why us as British people ware the poppy and stand proud for all our soldiers n sas n the ones we av lost .
I met Johnny Mac twice. He knew his stuff & was a great tutor. But you could tell he was troubled. I felt he had just checked out of this life. Respect to all our armed forces who protect our families.
I served with his son and he was legend as well. All this negative comments on this site. It just goes to show there are some sad arm chair warriors. James woodhouse how are you mate? I was in your company in the RJG. send us a private message mate.
On the very day he died, all his kit was packed in Afghan for selection. He never needed to go out of the FOB on that fateful patrol. MAC was waiting for his son in Hereford the day after to start selection. Like father like son both fucking hard legends. Mac died of a broken heart and took to the bottle that’s why he passed on dying of a heart attack. Sad, but reunited in heaven with his lad. RIP
@James Henderson There was an investigation over stuff on his computer, it was only stuff on a screen not abuse. He was never found guilty of anything. You need to stop inventing stories.
@@monstermonty9074 Actually it is. John was a real SAS war hero and comparing him to a shitty video game character is retarded. John should be remembered for his actions and sacrifices not a fictional video game character. Thats like comparing John McCain to Tom cruise because he was in top gun the movie. The SAS is the most historical special forces teams ever and thanks to the SAS team you wouldn't have the Navy Seals or any other Special Forces regiments around the world. Im Scottish and served in the Royal Air Force stationed at RAF Lossiemouth. I take great pride in Scots in the military and seeing a bunch of call of duty kiddos compare a legendary Scottish hero to a video game is pretty dumb and ignorant on your part and you assume anyone Scottish whos in the SAS is a video game character. Why don't you do your research on the SAS first and not just get your information from a video game character.
Godspeed Mac, still thinking of you and your son Paul and your brave service in the year 2024, may your sacrifices never be forgotten. I hope and pray you are together again. You were never the same after Paul died. You truly died of a broken heart. Godspeed Warrior…..
Very sad, I live in the Falklands where the SAS played a big part in '82. They are good blokes, very good at what they do but surprisingly normal when you chat with them. They don't need to prove anything do they :)
@James Henderson nah, they belong to the people who actually lives in the Islands, and those people are British, or do you really think that there are Argentinians that want to move to those Islands? They only cry for 'em because their country is so messed up they don't have anything else to do rather than throw shit to other countries
@James Henderson but the inhabitants of those Islands were native from them, in the Falklands there are literally only like between 6 or 10 argentinians, all the rest are british descendants
