    In his words, you cannot employ soldiers and expect them to act like policemen. Something we should have taken on board with
    recent cases against Soldiers who served in Northern Ireland.
    A true soldier in every way, steadfast in his duty, thoughful of his men and no messing about.

      As is the way of your kind of argument, ‘mask slip’ insinuates that my argument hides some sort of evil or ill will to my fellow man rather than a difference of opinion. Next you will be marching me into the Gulag😂.

      Colonel Mitchell had just had THREE of his men murdered and their bodies mutilated publicly. These men were under his command. That is why he was angry. I wish my old Commanding Officers would have done the same. In one instance I know that would not have occured. He was a proper Officer of his men.

      Mad Mitch was a upper class Toff lording over working class men, parachuted into the top Job because of his privileged background.
      The Sutherland and Argylls were fighting lower ranked opposition who were poorly equipped, just a rag tag army.
      This British unit mentioned above were going round bullying unarmed civilians, what's brave about that ?
