@HeroesOfBritain RIP Sir 🫡😢

[Heroes Of Britain @HeroesOfBritain]

💔 HE WAS A HERO TO THE NATION... BUT TO ONE MAN, HE WAS JUST HIS SON.

Sergeant Paul McAleese followed his father, legendary SAS soldier John "Mac" McAleese, into the British Army. He served with 2nd Battalion, The Rifles, and dreamed of one day joining the SAS himself.

But on 20 August 2009, just weeks before his 30th birthday, Paul was killed by an IED while on patrol in Helmand, Afghanistan.

To the country, he was another British soldier lost in the war.

To John, he was his boy.

The man who helped end the Iranian Embassy siege in 1980 later faced a battle no soldier can ever prepare for, burying his own son. Friends said John never truly recovered from Paul's death. He died just two years later.

Behind every medal and every military story is a family carrying a loss that never really goes away.

Lest We Forget.

I wasn’t there, however this guy was:

"I’d like to put the record straight, because I was there.

People often forget how the Argentine troops were treated after the Falklands War. We treated their wounded, and many would not have survived without the medical care they received. They were fed, and their officers were even allowed to keep their sidearms for their own safety.

After facing each other in battle, that wasn’t easy, but it was the right thing to do.

They were fed, cared for, and many were transported home on Canberra. We also cleaned up the mess that had been left behind. There was no complaining—we just got on with the job.

Many of the Argentine troops were exhausted and relieved to be going home after experiencing the reality of war. They were defeated and demoralised, and many couldn’t even look you in the eye.

Many of those young soldiers were more afraid of their own officers and the military junta than they were of us. They had been sent into an impossible situation by leaders who would never share their hardships.

The Falklands’ climate and terrain are brutal, and the weather is unforgiving. I saw young men who were hungry, frightened, dirty, wet and cold, longing to be back with their families in Argentina. Many I spoke to, while sharing hot drinks and sweets, told me they never wanted to be there in the first place.

So before anyone starts abusing me, my family or my brothers-in-arms, remember this: we were there. We experienced the full cycle of war, and we also witnessed the immense relief of the Falkland Islanders when the invaders finally left.

To those in Argentina who still believe the stories told by defeated generals, I’d simply say this: many of us were there, and we know what happened. Don’t confuse propaganda with the reality witnessed by those who fought and those who surrendered.

The war is over. Britain won. History cannot be changed. It’s time to stop reliving old arguments and instead focus on building a better future for the people of Argentina rather than making repeated claims over the Falkland Islands.

As my grandmother used to say, “Children should be seen and not heard.” Sometimes it’s wiser to listen to those who were actually there.

War tests not only courage in battle, but also humanity in victory. I am proud that we showed both.

Feel free to share and comment “war is not a political football “ maybe you should try it sometime it’s not advisable

Lives broken families destroyed

Respect to those lost to war and those who are still fighting a war long ago."

As I reported a couple of weeks ago, Trump, the DOJ and the WH were lying all along. Cases against alleged vandals were all lies. Lawsuits should be filed and the liars should be shamed.

Happy 75th Dad!

Today I'm remembering your weirdness and your extraordinary capacity to love.

And for the folks out there who'd like to celebrate with me, go do something kind for someone. Make someone laugh. Put a little more good into the world.

Love you forever.
