SAS Parachuting Into The South Atlantic

Bob Shepherd is a British Special Forces (UKSF) veteran and author. The Circuit was a Sunday Times bestseller.

He is a regular media commentator on security issues and appears on CNN International, BBC One, BBC World, BBC Radio and SKY News.

Transcript from ‘SAS Parachuting Into The South Atlantic’

Bob – So that was The Falklands and two years before that, we had The Iranian Embassy seige in London. I was on the top floor going in from the roof. It’s all part of being in a team. I had the job of lowering the explosives over the stairwell. If anybody watches the Iranian Embassy BBC clip on Youtube, there’s a big explosion and then there’s some journalists saying, ‘That was a bomb’. Then you then see the lads climbing out. You know, the four lads of the 30,000 that climbed out onto the balcony.

SAS Trooper & Royal Marines Commando

Robin Horsfall and Chris Thrall discuss life, death, poetry and everything in between.

Transcript from ‘SAS Trooper & Royal Marines Commando’ podcast

R – It’s a work of art and you know it has a limited audience, but I’m glad it’s out there.

C – You’re obviously very well read. How did you get into writing and have you always been a reader?

R – I’ve always loved books. I love books more than television. I think being a soldier, I didn’t like the idea of going into the tv room and not being able to watch the program I wanted to because the other lads were watching Top of the Pops.

Executed In The Falklands | Podcast #173

Posted on 12 May 2021 by Chris Thrall

Executed in The Falklands is part of the Brian Short story. Brian chats with Commando Chris Thrall.

[yotuwp type=”videos” id=”8uBlgQKLkMI” ]

Executed In The Falklands

Brian Short joined the Royal Marines, not as a commando but as a bandsman. The Royal Marines Band is the finest military marching band in the world, but this doesn’t mean they don’t go to war. In this emotional podcast Brian tells his traumatic story, dealing with both Argentine and British casualties.

Transcript from ‘Executed In The Falklands’ podcast

B – I very much knew in my own mind at that time, that we were going to win this war. Not because what I or the band were doing, but when you saw the professionalism and the fitness of the marines and the paras, you were training every day on Canberra. We know what they go through at Lympstone. I had no doubt that whoever they were going up against, these boys were going to commit acts of gross violence against the enemy and they were going to win.

C – I’m just looking at your notes and I’m trying not to get ahead of ourselves Brian. So what was D-Day in San Carlos like?

GO! GO! GO! SAS Iranian Embassy Siege Rusty Firmin

Rusty Firmin was Special Air Service (SAS) Blue Team and back door Assault Team Leader, at the Iranian Embassy Siege. He served in SAS B Squadron, HQ Squadron 23 SAS permanent staff instructor and in 29 Commando Regiment Royal Artillery. He went on to work as a security consultant, close protection operative, security manager, author, speaker and consultant.

Transcript from ‘GO! GO! GO! SAS Iranian Embassy Siege’ podcast

C – All the preparations are in place. You’re running on adrenaline and you’re about to put your life on the line for the very last time. Just as you’re going in, The BBC broadcast your secret to the whole world. What what was all that all about?

R – You know at the end of the day there’s no televisions inside the embassy that I’m aware of. That’s exactly what they would do. Don’t forget they’ve been sat outside there themselves from day one and cameras glued to the balcony front.

UK And EU Army? Our Orwellian Future | Podcast #159

Posted on 10 May 2021 by Chris Thrall

‘Will UK military merge with EU Army?’ is the question I asked former para signaler, Mike McCarthy, a director of Veterans for Truth. Mike explains to me why the UK military has no choice but to become part of the EU army defence force. It has already been decided.

[yotuwp type=”videos” id=”0MtKVbAQsOg” ]

‘Will UK military merge with EU Army?’

‘Are we heading for a 1984-like Orwellian future’ and ‘will the UK military merge with EU Army?’ is the fascinating podcast chat Chris Thrall had with former parachute regiment signaler Mike McCarthy.

Transcript from ‘Will UK military merge with EU Army? Podcast #159

C – How are you?

M – Good my brother. I’ve just been out on the hills and I’ve spent my whole day up there, so it was a great. The weather started out as such a beautiful day here in southern Ireland and then the hail came down. So we had a hail storm. We had everything today. The weather was wonderful and great anyway.

C – It is so important to get out mate isn’t it and to make that connection with nature so we don’t get too freaking tunnel-visioned by all this technological, urban, ugliness.

M -You’ve got to be out rain or shine, every single day and yes it’s beautiful. I think it was Kurt Vonnegut whom said, ‘We’re here to have a good time and don’t let anyone tell you different’. Whatever we’re going through, this is the day we’ve been given and we should make it a good one. I try and do that everyday.

SAS Paras Royal Marines To Be REBRANDED EU! | #158

Posted on 26 March 202111 May 2021 by Chris Thrall

SAS Paras & Royal Marines to be rebranded by The EU! We’re losing the control and identity of our UK armed forces to the European Defence Forces and the ‘global’ agenda.

[yotuwp type=”videos” id=”rrKIjVt25S4″ ]

SAS Paras & Royal Marines To Be REBRANDED EU!

SAS Paras & Royal Marines To Be REBRANDED EU! We’re losing the control and identity of our UK armed forces to the European Defence Forces and the ‘global’ agenda. No one knows or cares!

Transcript snippet from ‘SAS Paras & Royal Marines To Be REBRANDED EU!’

C – Hello Dave and what have you got for me this week. Is the face of the Royal Marines changing for the better or worse?

D – Very good morning to you Chris and a big shout out to all the fellow bootnecks and frontline units there. Well we’ve sort of rounded the revelations made yesterday at the defence committee and we’ve had this integrated review finally being released. It’s full but of course what they’ve done over the previous months is this stuff keeps being drifted out in little snippets. Just as if it’s like a softening up exercise. So there’s several things happening in the same time frame. So let’s go with the Royal Marines and Stonehouse. We’ve got the same M.O. as drifting this stuff out in the press, so they want to shut Stonehouse. That’s the cultural centre of the Royal Marines. We’re seeing this gambit of a Rangers force coming in. The concept of this unification of our military was articulated by our permanent secretary back in 2015.

History Bro Discusses The Falklands Conflict | Podcast #155

Posted on 17 March 202111 May 2021 by Chris Thrall

A chat with one of the channel’s biggest supporters, History Bro, about the Falklands Conflict – or was it a war? We discuss. History Bro’s YouTube channel: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCEwYhrka7Je0ZASriyDWmyQ

[yotuwp type=”videos” id=”Tb6jLk-zqGw” ]

History Bro | The Falklands Conflict

I chat with one of the channel’s biggest supporters, History Bro, about the Falklands Conflict. Or was it a war? We discuss.

Transcript from ‘History Bro The Falklands Conflict’

C – History Bro how are you?

HB – Hi Mr Thrall it’s a pleasure to have a bit of your time, I really appreciate it. If we could talk about the Falklands a bit, is that what we’ve got on the docket today?

C – You can see just by looking at your channel and for everybody watching I suggest you do, you’ve got a fairly in depth understanding of history, compared to someone like myself and I think we could talk forever, but shall we talk about the Falklands?

HB – Yeah, I would really like to, it’s one of things when I first got in touch with you that really sprung to mind, with of course your history with the Royal Marines. Just to put it in a bit of context I’d like to say early on that neither of us where there if anyone’s under any weird idea. |I wasn’t even one years old, I was born in 1981 and I hadn’t even had my first birthday when the action went down on the Falklands there. I imagine you were ten or twelve at the time, that sort of age but it’s part of your regimental history.
