Chris Kenna claims Britain’s special forces forced him out because he’s gay. The elite military wing, however, claims he never actually qualified as a full special force’s soldier, despite the fact that they used him as such in Iraq. [Times]

Just sounds like a load of B.S.: Why would they ask him to be a supernumerary “until he got straightened out”whatever the fuck that is and suggest that he say he was just “going through a phase” (I thought they gave that up). when he had been effective for 2 years, no other complaints .
queerunity
i thought they allow openly gay men

The MAn your talkin about !!
Hey.
Not gonna slag the regiment because my 2 years there – was a complete privilage.
Best guys and special forces in the world – but will say chris ryans comments in news of the world that gay soldiers would not be totally focused on the enemy.
What is he on – i would just be thinking about the fella next to me – please….
I would be some where to do a job and get it done right not to pull…. lol
I think the armys response was just a shame – they should have said we will look into it cause they know its true and why it was done…
Hereford does not answer to the main army and has a world wide reputation to maintain but i was good at what i did….
Im not good with words so will stop – but my career is taking in last 6 months- total contrast in careers but it was secound choice in life and im living another dream just hope that it getting out will stop it happening to anyone else – i know they will think twice next time so has worked even if they deny it all…
ok will go now ….lol
cheers for supportive comments though lads
regards
