    I like Peter Berg. He also directed the upcoming movie with will smith, so I will give this movie a little faith.

    Or downplay things. Worst thing they could do is make it look like this was a run of the mill thing that happens everyday.

    Asked him who`s the best he`s trained with over the years,he said Brittish SAS most professional in his words.Trained with the Irish Ranger Wing in Northern Africa and said he was impressed by them.

    It happened before it'll happen again sure as the sun rises every damn morning.
    These people are called posers, implying to be or have been in units they were never in, having participated in combat when they never have.
    Once such a poser is dicovered MP.net sends a black helicopter to put an end to his lies and disrespect.

    Our Gov barely let's them do their job in Chad ect, never mind Tunisia (yes i know it's peaceful there), hell they made them wear temperate DPM's in Chad so they wouldn't look like the nasty French thats the baby holding

    being in the wing must be annoying as hell, never really being able to do what you were trained for without some civil servent tut tutting over your shoulder....
