Serious SG Special Forces soldier becomes a monk
- Thread starter Scrooball (clone)
- Start date
The "old" LTC Fred Cheong and his team was just following Orders from the Top to storm SQ117.
ask any Logician and will tell you Cheong and teammates are Not killers.
they are just the "weapons" used to do get the Job done.
Unfortunately for this "monk", terrorists and hijackers are not logicians nor uniformed combatants who follow rules of logic or the rules of war.
Even more unfortunately for him, there will be members of their families, tribes and clans who are still alive and breathing. When you kill one of them, these families, tribes and clans will come back to kill you and those involved, no matter how many years have passed.
It's his prerogative if he wishes to seek the limelight and brag about himself, even as a "monk".
However, it's not his prerogative to disclose information of which he had no right to disclose. The OSA makes sure of this. Being in the SOF, he would know of this. He would also have been reminded of this when he signed a non-disclosure undertaking before he left the SAF.
go and Google SQ117
for years its on the Web Pages.
Who Ordered the "Code Red" ???

It should not come a surprise to anyone that this can be googled. As I posted earlier (Msg 114), it is "not about the hijack which everyone knew about" but "the identity" of those "who participated in it (himself)".
Extract from Msg 114
Notice there's mention of various names of various people involved except the names and identities of any of the SOF troopers?
The reason, as I have mentioned, is because this was classified information (their identities and not the hijack and rescue which was splashed on the front pages of the 147th 28 years ago).
The identities are still classified until the vanity and ego of this "monk" got the better of him and his un-monkly and self-aggrandising desire for the grandstand of limelight, fame and glory.
KNN after reading the chronological events can say commandos play cheat i.e. people say kill only but never kill you never say kill (to the hijackers) but you kill KNN lesson learnt is next time score some goals first before conceding goals KNN

thats overkill.
thats overkill.
Major Charlie99
would say after 28 years ( from 1991)
this Classification of this case would have been
downgraded.
Monk Fred Cheong is free to speak.
KNN should be like movie i want 0 unharmed hostage enemy 格杀无论 KNN
He is "free to speak" but he is not "free" to disclose information that he is not permitted to disclose.
It's not up to Charlie99, Fred Chong, you or I to decide that the classification should no longer be in force. It's what the law states and the code of secrecy that he signed up to, both officially in signed documents, and informally as a code of conduct amongst a band of brothers in the SAF's SOF.
It's the reason why the phrase "unsung heroes" exists for these people. They have signed up for a vocation in the full knowledge that they will not be publicly credited and acknowledged in their personal capacities for what they do.
The "anonymity' below is typical of anti-terrorist/Special Forces across the globe.

Yin Nah Deh! Dissuade our sons from becoming SAF regulars!
but the hero in the movies always say to leave no one behind, and take no prisoners - as difficult to do fireman's lift.
knn, what type of movies you watched in yangtze cinema that time?
I did not indicate that he was free to speak or discuss.
But, may be, he should not have disclosed the names and identities of the SOF troopers.
May be, after these decades, the info is no longer classified.
By the way, I am a lowly LTA, not Major.
The identities remain classified notwithstanding the decades that have passed. It is for security reasons, not only for the troopers involved but their family members and those around them.
It's also the reason why other Ops undertaken - and there are others - are not, and will never be disclosed. This Op happened to be disclosed only because it was a "visible" hijacking case. Even so, only those information that could be disclosed were. The identities, tactics, type of weapons used, etc were not disclosed.
If he became an Imam would you all cheer?
