After 50 years on the planet and over 30 of those serving my country I smile wryly at the likes of justanotherday but still wonder what possesses someone like him to join Prune, only 5 days ago at that, just to post in such a rude manner 
As someone pretty much at the top of the baldrick cadre I have, I believe, developed a very good sense of right and wrong over the years, like to think I am a pretty good judge of character and have the very enviable trait of being able to shave every morning with a clear conscience!
Phil R, a confessed member of the media confirmed what I have asserted from the outset that whatever the words or phrases actually used in the interview they would not be the ones used contextually in the article. There are plenty of folk I work with, products of our class based military society who I would believe capable of such scurrilous comments and I would condemn them unreservedly both at work and in here for them, however I state once again that I do not believe that Caz is guilty as charged.
We are all entitled to our opinions, I believe mine is based on years of experience and a fair amount of subject knowledge all I would ask is that before anyone else posts derogatory comments on here they ponder what their opinion is actually based on and if it's simply a journalists scribblings maybe you ought to have a word with yourself

I have had a word with myself and have thus come to this conclusion.
1 In order for a reporter to "massage" a interview one assumes it has a basis in fact. Therefore I still maintain the sentiment if not the content was present.
2 My opinion too is based on knowledge and also interaction with the press.
3 What does shaving with a clear conscience have to do with it?
4 Once again I re-iterate that no-one has yet, to my knowledge, actually confirmed or denied that she made remarks by ascertaining the story from the author. Despite the many people who claim to know her.
Therefore I do feel justified in my condemnation of this story and the author. IF anyone can actually prove to me that she did not express that sentiment in some shape or form then I will duly admit my error. In the meantime I maintain my position.

And I thought the 'Samuraimatt in the hat' had gone away.
There are a number of posters here who refuse to believe that there must have been some truth in the words or sentiment for it to go to press. Anything else would be grounds for litigation by the interviewee and let's face it, this story was never going to be the journalist's big career breakthrough so wasn't worth even bending the truth.

Will you boys play nicely? One, probably, very well meaning, nice girl does an instant chavette impersonation to the wrong audience and you daft buggers just have to fall out!
I'm really surprised that this hasn't found its way to Jetblast by now.
Should anyone want to mount a defence/counter attack/whatever, I'm overseas until next Wednesday.

Here's the sad fact; SamuraiT&@ has made about 14 posts since he joined us on about page 6. At no point has he contributed anything to the thread, other than to be abusive and rubbish other's opinions.
Well done.
