Tiger-pie Posted October 28, 2007 Posted October 28, 2007 This is the only time you ever see these blokes faces in the press...RIPIt is with great sadness that the Department of Defence announces the death of Sergeant Matthew Locke, serving with Special Air Service Regiment in Oruzgan Province in southern Afghanistan on Thursday, 25 October 2007.Sergeant Locke was on a patrol when fatally wounded by small arms fire from Taliban extremists.
filupe Posted February 1, 2009 Posted February 1, 2009 This is the only time you ever see these blokes faces in the press...RIPI guess this is now proven to be wrong with the award of the VC to TPR Donaldson of the SASR. Unfortunately for him, the publicity probably precludes further operational service.

Unfortunately for him, the publicity probably precludes further operational service.It was done for PR purposes, and Donaldson VC will be going back on operational service. The only thing that he will be precluded from will be the domestic anti-terrorist operatives. Johnsy
