@WMcluskey Literally just been watching this again…and it was well received on my last ship!

@almurray @AirborneSappers Brilliant! Just crated one of the lads in this picture…cheers!

Hope you had a cracking time. Loved visiting Arnhem a few years back.

Also…your book about it’s great!

[Adam McDonald @Adammcdo]

@margunson86 Fair! Where did he fight? My relative was skilled in action at The Somme….my Dad managed to find out where he was buried

[Adam McDonald @Adammcdo]

@margunson86 Haven’t read much about WW1. My Dad has his Great Uncles diary from before the war and, I think, from his time in the trenches

[Adam McDonald @Adammcdo]

@margunson86 Good lad!

Got loads of good books people can read!

[Adam McDonald @Adammcdo]

@margunson86 A Drop Too Many https://t.co/6ZZBAFYoK5

Also…General Urqhuarts book is fantastic too!

But one of the best? ‘A bridge too Far’ by Cornelius Ryan

[Adam McDonald @Adammcdo]

@margunson86 oOo a Guardsman! Have you read Johnny Firsts book?

[Adam McDonald @Adammcdo]

@margunson86 It’s a cracking place to visit! Hartenstein Hotel and me and the dogs at the drop zone.

[Adam McDonald @Adammcdo]

@Albrochier What’s the book called?

[Adam McDonald @Adammcdo]

@cdrsalamander Wish I was able too. The U.K. has gone to pot

[Adam McDonald @Adammcdo]

@OfAthenry Brit here. I agree. 100%. It’s bollocks.

SAS Hero Breaks Down Why He Went Into the Nairobi Terrorist Attack Alone

“I hear a woman scream and automatic gunfire cut the scream off. And I realized that woman had just been murdered. So right there, I look at them and say, ‘Right, I’m going in. You guys coming with me?’ And then one guy looks up and goes, ‘No, boss.’ And then I leave the office and commit into the hotel.”

“It all changes when the guy looks up at me saying, ‘No one’s in there. No one’s here yet.’ And then hearing the woman scream, it’s like, okay, it’s all on me now. From him saying that to me saying, ‘Right, I’m going in,’ was probably less than two seconds. I’m going because if I’m not going to do it, no one else is. And someone’s just been murdered.”

@RSE_VB My last ship pulled into a Middle Eastern country a few months back. We got briefed on local customs. The Chief Officer informed those who are gay etc that they need to keep that quiet while ashore as the country we were going too had it down as illegal and punishable. Horrid

[Adam McDonald @Adammcdo]

@UKLabour You’re clearly not on my side!

[Adam McDonald @Adammcdo]

@RSE_VB Thank you for sharing.

I now know the dangers of Lego, aside from standing on it, before I commit to spending a silly amount on it!

[Adam McDonald @Adammcdo]

@WMcluskey Aye the ones in that….to be honest. From what I’ve seen of the NYC Mayor I’ve had to say to myself ‘WTF’ but then again…as a Brit it’s not my place to question who’s elected in. It’s a convo we can have privately!

@wesstreeting Fund UK Defence first you tit!

@andyburnham Labour rewarded the attacks on Isreal by ‘recognising’ a Palestinian state. Well done dick head, your party emboldened terrorists and shit on an ally.

And now you’ve gone and done it again.

Even though Hamas don’t want a 2 state solution, they want the destruction of Isreal
