SAS hero hacks ISIS terror trio to death armed with just Gurkha knife

"But in a massive turnaround, the defiant sergeant began hacking at the trio with a kukri. The 27-year-old hero had been given the knife by a British Gurkha soldier before he joined the SAS."

Well done trooper!

I love a story with a happy ending. It's like a Disney cartoon, but with violence.

Ummm....'27 years old with 15 years in the SAS'?

 

[Marauder06]

Bullshit all over this story.
-27 years old, 15 years of experience in the military (already noted by Ex3)
-on the wrong end of a three-on-one and "decapitated" the first attacker.

Color me HIGHLY skeptical of the accuracy of this story.

You can't expect me to read the articles. I'm not some peasant.

Oh this is worth a big pile of skepticism, for sure, but a feel good story nonetheless.

Did anyone here stop to consider the empirical "details " when Dorothy greased the Wicked Witch? Hellz no!

Quoting an "SAS source."

my apologies to all, after re-reading it, I am hoping the age thing was just a fuck up.

None necessary. Despite the skepticism it could be true. But the guy sounds like The Hound.

I'll be interested to see any follow up articles on this.

This reminds me of the "bayonet charge" in Iraq article from a few years back.

This reminds me of the "bayonet charge" in Iraq article from a few years back.

There is a story of the black watch reg doing a bayonet charge in Iraq around 2004. I have no idea if it's true , but I do know they were there during that time frame. Something about being ambushed, running low on ammo and fixing bayonets and charging the ambush position.

That ones true. Probably thinking of the same story.


Soldier who led Afghanistan bayonet charge into hail of bullets honoured

This isn't the exact article, but it's similar. The article I'm referencing made it sound like they bayoneted the insurgents, when in fact it would be more accurate to say "they IMT'd with bayonets fixed."

Scottish Bayonet Charge in Iraq

I think this is the one I'm talking about. Not sure if they actually shanked those fools with cold steel or not, but still some ballsy shit IMO.

27 year old SAS trooper, sounds right, 27 year old SAS Sergeant sounds unlikely.

The Brits love their hero propaganda. Multi-mile sniper kills, knife kills... what's next? Someone pulls the sword from the stone?

 

[Devildoc]

C'mon, we gotta let the myths perpetuate. If some of y'all had the internet during WWI you would have called out the Marines for the whole teufel hunden thing....
