If I remember correctly they did have a senior ex officer from either the Navy or the RAF on the board at the time or just after the deal but I think hes fucked off now.

They're already drawing pensions

Or dead, more likely. The decisions were made in 1995/96.

Always nice to see veterans doing well for themselves.

You would have to cross refer with the court martial listings.

I'm sure years ago all the details were there before the case (when they list upcoming courtmartial with the crime and name of person) and after (with the crime, sentence and name).

It almost seems as though the MoD are deliberately making it awkward.

And the reporting refers to other administrative action that may be taken by the Army.

Loaded Webley and a bottle of whiskey in the mess annex? Thats what happened to the buggers in the old days.

Alas, Dunblane put paid to that.

I thought it was Hungerford?

No, after Hungerford shooters lost licences for semi automatic rifles like AK47's, SLR's and AR15's which like the USA could be bought on semi automatic only with the appropriate firearms licence. After Dunblane the government took away the authorisation for semi automatic pistols like Glocks and 9mm Browning's.

Aren't the military allowed to keep one on the books for the appropriate occasion in the armoury?

They banned whiskey?

The moment would be lost as the G4S armourer ran you through the TEWTs

 

[Auld-Yin]

They banned whiskey?

In Dunblane? So they should. Whisky OTOH!

 

[Portree Kid]

Why would an armourer, far less a G4S armourer be running a TEWT ?

You beat me to it.
