Then why did you bring it up?
You dragged it here, utterly without context, in a neat piece of character assassination. Waynos pointed out that it lacked context. RN Medic linked back to the entire thread, to give it context for those who wanted to go find it, and explained his words.
So now you want to dismiss it as being irrelevant?
Huh...

My mistake, beg pardon, yes, you did.
After it was pointed out that your post had no context on which to be judged.
So, while I read through the last page too quickly and made that particular error, I'm afraid the rest of my post stands.
Why did you bring it up, only to dismiss it after RN Medic explained himself? It still reeks of character assassination to me.

OK, so now that the context has been established and a bit of scene setting has been done in terms of filling in some of the evolution of the story how about we draw a line and stop discussing RNM1945's behaviour elsewhere, (he has no "previous" on this board as far as I know), or anybody else's attitude for that matter, and concentrate on the question of Bader's movements as far as they can be established.
I am confident that if any abusive or unacceptable behaviour should start up over here then the staff will deal with it in their normal efficient manner

Very true, there is a brutal dichotomy there between the apparently highly secret nature of Bader's presence in Liverpool and that he was housed very publicly in a hotel rather than at one of any number of discrete locations that must have existed at the time.
Unless the the affair went awry in some manner which meant that what should have been public was necessarily turned into a secret matter.

Could you not be wrong - how do you know this wasn't a joke played on your by your seniors?
Answer - you don't.
Bader was not in Liverpool in 1942. Fact.
we have said this thread is to be serious discussion of the possibilities.
The probability is that Bader did not travel to Liverpool in 1942.
?
Bader was not in Liverpool in 1942. Fact.
please forget your silly feuds
I had previously attempted to debate this subject seriously with the author
Methinks he doth protest too much
We also have to look at the credibility of the only witness - no character assasination, but...this is disingenuous at best...only holes in the story that Ken has then reworked to cover up. As a witness Ken is not credible and...means that it has to be treated with considerable caution.
I hoped I had made this clear earlier, but to recap. I noted in one of my early posts here that I had previously attempted to debate this subject seriously with the author of the "mystery", but had been rebuffed in a very rude and aggressive fashion, which Waynos had not come across and asked for detail on, which I supplied. That's not character assassination but fact.
...economical with the truth.

Sorry Ken, you're as mistaken as to my identity and experience as you are on Baders. So there we have it, you can add nothing than more abuse.
