Ohhh Really???
And just why should anyone seriously consider the opinion of someone
from the very same RAAF units who *******ized the whistleblower and
continue desperately trying to cover up the problem?

Especially one who feigns ignorance by professing not to know the ins
and outs of that business etc. What flagrant BS!

Or are you denying there was widespread drug abuse at RAAF Amberley?

Or the bashing of LAC Moore by a fellow Airfield Defence Guard
occurred?

Unfortunately for you and your ilk Brash, and hopefully for the
betterment of the ADF as a whole the game is up -

"The RAAF has confirmed it's referred the case of air defence guard
Nathan Moore to the Inspector General of Defence for an independent
inquiry.

The 23-year-old claims he was bashed and threatened by colleagues,
after raising allegations about drug production and missing weapons at
Queensland's Amberley air base.

Twenty-two RAAF personnel later admitted they had used illegal drugs."

You need to get some facts straight before you gob off Mick. Otherwise,
you'll end up looking like a dill. Whoops! Too late!

Really.

Because I'm not from the very same unit. That's why I said "I've never met
the bloke, and I don't know the in's and out's of that business". Dill.

What's more, no one at the unit "*******ised" LAC Moore. He may not have
received the support he may have deserved, but he certainly wasn't
mis-treated by the unit. Dill.

Feigning ignorance? Unlike you, dill, if I don't know what I'm talking
about, I don't feign knowledge. You should try it.

The only bull**** around here is the stuff you're shovelling.

> Or are you denying there was widespread drug abuse at RAAF Amberley?

You bet. A handful of steroid and speed users does not "widespread drug
abuse" make.

I suggest you leave the beat-ups to the media. (Or is that where you get
your"information"?)

>

No, I don't deny that, and I didn't deny that. For what it's worth, the
bloke that did the bashing is one of the biggest idiots God ever shovelled
guts into. A malcontent, barracks lawyer, and general waste of rations. You
and he would probably get on marvellously.

The "game" was up years ago. Do try and keep up.

Good. Maybe some senior officers will get dragged over the appropriate
coals.

Missing weapons. Now that's where Nathan loses all credibility. He should
have stuck to the facts instead of trying to spice up his claims and make
them more attention-getting to the media.

>

From a Base population of around 3,000. Hardly "widespread".

I'm not the "small facsimile" of the real thing little man. Short arses like

You know that things like this are not new. In Raymond Terrace when I was
about 7rs old I found a box of armed practice bombs. Later when I was a
teenager I would get drunk and stoned with RAAF personal. I heard of
bashings, especially of one particular bloke who was a poof and tried to
crack onto a Corpral,

There is nothing new under the sun. Especially in mankinds' hearts
