22SAS CRW Red Troop 1989
I know Ryan was a sniper but Bob ?
Ravage,
I donīt remember what book it was, but it mentioned Ryan being the sniper team leader or something. The pic saying Bob being that sniper is the only text in which such was mentioned.
If you compare this pic with the one showing B2Z on the tailgate of a Chinook you can clearly see that Bob is the same guy in both pics.

The pic is from Andy McNab's "Immediate Action". As for Bob being in that pic I can't tell. The pic just says "Red Team, 1989. McNab is standing center rear in blue T-shirt."
But if I remember correctly Bob joined B Squadron in 1990, straight from Selection. Have to take a look at the book again though.
