Usually on patrol in belfast soldiers will be in groups of three with a backing vehicle in the middle of the road as they walk the street.Would there really be a chance for the IRA to set the dogs on steve after he was blown up when his back up was in the same street.
Could it just be that steve was walking back from the pub, back to barracks and just happened to be the poor soldier who got it after months off intelligence and recon by the IRA to discover routes from pubs that the squaddies use to get back to barracks.
war? were we at war?
Steves just an unlucky bastard imo....sorry if this offends, but i don't see steve as the pantomime war hero he is being trundled out for bb's purposes.
This isn't a dig at steve, it's a dig at bb for uttering complete ****e about someone ho was in the wrong place at the wrong time on a saturday night.
Don't believe me, tough, I couldn't give a ****, I know A man who served with him.
