So I'm normally a lurker on PPRUNE, especially seeing as I'm ex-Army :-)
Apart from the obvious apathy from HM Guv'mint, what really makes my blood boil is the inaction of the 'British' Legion on the basis that he's not a 'British' enough, despite taking Betty's shilling and serving the crown.
Given the number of oiks and walters that populate the average Legion, [lus the cash that is raked in from subsidised beer, it begs the question as to their purpose? I thought the charter was to provide a voice, and represent the interests of, British forces veterans, and I assumed (wrongly) irrespective of their original contry of origin.
I live in the US and I actually have a blemish on my record, however, even the USCIS were humane enough to balance this against my service and good character over the long term. I'm ashamed to say it was considerably more serious that Bale's so called offence.
Disgusting.
