The Guyana Defence Force (GDF) says that a Kaieteur News report on the death of the three pirates, who were shot dead at Cromarty, Corentyne wrongly attribute appointments to them “to which they were never entitled while alive”.
A press release from the GDF said that on the second page of last Saturday’s edition of the Kaieteur News, it was stated that “One of the dead bandits has been positively identified as James Gibson, a former GDF officer…” The article continued, the release said “…Another bandit was positively identified as Cliff Chichester… a former cadet officer…”
The army asserted that Gibson was dismissed from the force for failing to meet the required standards on the Army’s Standard Officer’s Course, while Chichester was a Lance Corporal, who was dismissed for stealing from the GDF.
Yes but they were members of the force at some time,
Too many young people addicted to drugs. Educated or not, a person when addicted, will do anything for a fix. TThe drug dealers/business men should spend some time in Brickdam Jail
Sandhurst First – Go and jump in the Atlantic River…wherever that is! What an idiotic comment blaming the GDF officers for these men choosing a life of crime.
Re: “Sandhurst First – Go and jump in the Atlantic River” Now, that is not very nice to say. What if this person actually does what you are saying then the authorities should come after you.
It is suggested that the Moderators at Stabroek News (SN) remove your comment.
Never heard of the “Atlantic River”!!! The “Atlantic Ocean” – yes! O:-)
let me tell you why i blame some officers in the gdf for their endings…..
Chichester…..
was not so dicsipline but was very intelligent and was capable of learning anything in a matter of hours….his family got money but they never allowed him the priviliage of spending it foolishly. He would normally drive in the base (Ayanganna) with many expensive vehicles that were more expensive than many officers toyotas’ and they were jealous of this. One day an officer who was not so recently disciplined for the disappearance of a weapon, interrogated him asking where he was getting all these cars from. From then on they had their eyes on him and were waiting on a false move to kick him out!! The last time i saw him was just before i left to go to SandHurst in 2004……
Gibson
was a cadet on a dog course…the things cadets go through on this course is so unreal that i cannot explain for security reasons (laughs) These days the course is so easy that a Cadet Fly can become an officer in the G.D.F (since the death of a certain cadet) Had the poilcies for tarining human beings severly altered from the begining of the cadet course #1 then we would have had many well rounded officers now in the G.D.F including Gibson…………not the ones who tortures!!
Oh Jesus Christ…you make me laugh so loud, man yuh funny. I think he should go jump in the Atlantic River too, ha ha ha haaaaaaaaaaa. Oh my god. That was good.
Kaieteur Gold, stop, you is too much. meh belly near buss open. Yes.
Swat,
sorry , my comment about the Atlantic River was meant for you bro, not Kaieteur Gold. Sorry, but that was funny indeed.
I just like to listen and learn, but when we exchange such violent words towards each other, I learn nothing.
fineman cousin and sandhurst you guys are sick in the head no think power so sad
……for the record the army should specific for people reading the paper…..date!
The army either make u or break u.So I cannot understand how the army could make such statements.therefore your trainning staffs are failures.
you ar so wise man,,,so wise. The Leadership of the GDF are petty people who only seek to air their dirty laundry about the ranks that cannot reply, afterall they knew this for sometime and NEVER revealed it to the public before, NEVER ONCE, but now that they are dead, they blame them for everything.
So where is the K-News statement incorrect? The dead alleged criminals are to be considered as FORMER irrespective of how they were no longer ASSOCIATED with the army.
Sand Hurst First,,,,ever heard of the Military code K. I. S. S……..stands for Keep it simple and stupid. You got me?.
