I just found out, this past Wednesday, that I have the same issue. Under active Thyroid. Just did a thyroid scan yesterday, to rule out any lumps or bumps. It showed no activity in the Thyroid at all, so it looks like a pill a day, for life. They reckon I picked up some sort of virus, or at...
Looks like they are being held at Evin Prison. Most likely moved now that this picture was released. An American citizen pointed this out to a US media outlet, and they ran with the story. I am searching for it now.

Well, I guess the proof is in the pudding. Nice Picture of a GPS handheld, over the merchant ship, 1.5 Miles inside Iraqi waters. Whoever took that was thinking.
And Turkish diplomats may be granted access to the sailors and marines. Let's hope.
Teddy,
After 4 nights....no. But what after 4 weeks or 4 months?
How many ways, or how many times should the UK say "Gives us back our troops?". If after 4 weeks of Iranian dilly dally and farting about, are the UK not left with the tomahawk, S.A.S, 4.5" shell option? And I would have to...
With respects to getting Politicians Arses in gear.......
Is there not Iran Air flights from Tehran to London's Heathrow Airport, still being made on a daily basis? A government run airline, still being allowed to make these flights into and out of the UK. And how many other NATO countries...

I don't think the Iranians are even interested in a trade or prisoner exchange. It's probably just a fringe benefit of the situation that they created. They look to be more interested in making a statement. Holding a kangaroo court...

This is most certainly degrading into something that the Iranians may not be able to turn back from.
If the UK does not know their whereabouts, and this situation carries on for another few days, Militarily, what are the options? The SAS are no...
I agree. And to further aggravate things, the 15 were all flown to Tehran last night. I don't think this occurred the last time sailors and marines were accosted illegally by Iran, nor do I think it happend when that P-3 landed on the Chinese island. Being taken to the countries respective...
8 books in the series? Geeeeezzzz......
I only just finished reading Immediate Action. I know this was the last of his real life stuff, but I never knew he went into the world of fictional stuff.
And has anyone read any of the books from Cameron Spence? Sabre Squadron and Extreme Measures? Or...
Mark,
Piece of Cake was an excellent flick. Hornet Squadron I believe it was. My favorite character was Flash.
Another good series was Danger UXB. About Bomb disposal in the UK during the blitz. Great series.
Serious situation for the service members involved, with the potential of starting a major international incident, is turning into a bit of a joke on this thread.
#1 Band of Brothers. "Capt. Sobel....You salute the Rank, not the man."
#2 Battle of Britain. "They can teach monkey's to fly better than!....Taka Taka Taka Taka.....!
#3 A Bridge Too Far "Were going to fly 35'000 men, 300 miles, and drop them behind enemy lines."
#4 The Eagle has...
3rd Herd,
I am very interested in this topic, and would most certainly be interested to read this book. My father, having been born in Norfolk, has some memories of the preparations used to defend against invasion. As does his mother and father, my grandparents. Also along the same lines, but...
I think it's a little to early to be making statements such as that. Especially without all the facts.
And I do believe, that UK frigate/ship commanders, have been making decisions with respects to ships, boarding parties, and all things naval, for many, many years. Again, without all the...
Not that this is the peace community, but it offers some thought, from former players involved in the current situation.

Didn't post the whole article on here, it's too big.
From an outsiders view on this......
I watch an awful lot of news. from a variety of sources, about the conflicts in Iraq and Afghanistan. And one theme that has been used an awful lot, recently, is that there can be no "military only" solution to the conflicts in both of these countries. There...
Canadian Border Security Agency takes care of this, do they not?
I don't think it is a Forces trade, but obviously a Federal Government Agency....try this link...
