That\u2019s why the helicopter drop was so far away.\u201d<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>From the initial post on Stirling on the WMHC;<\/p>\n<blockquote><p>Information from former Para\u2019s that were in service at the times and places indicated by Stirling have proved negative this includes ranks from Private up to and including a Lt. Col. Para Data shows nothing either. In total over 30 sources have been checked in respect of the Parachute Regiment and also includes people coming forward who served in the very platoon that Stirling claims to have been in.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>So I guess they&#8217;re having the same problem with the media over there as we&#8217;re having over here.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Our friends in the UK who call themselves the Walter Mitty Hunters write to tell us &hellip; <a title=\"Walter Mitty Hunters catch UK press interviewing a phony SAS trooper\" class=\"hm-read-more\" href=\"https:\/\/www.azuse.cloud\/?p=31126\"><span class=\"screen-reader-text\">Walter Mitty Hunters catch UK press interviewing a phony SAS trooper<\/span>Read more<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[30],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-31126","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-phony-soldiers"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.azuse.cloud\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/31126","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.azuse.cloud\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.azuse.cloud\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.azuse.cloud\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.azuse.cloud\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcomments&post=31126"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.azuse.cloud\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/31126\/revisions"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.azuse.cloud\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fmedia&parent=31126"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.azuse.cloud\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcategories&post=31126"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.azuse.cloud\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Ftags&post=31126"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
