A former Royal Marine awarded the George Cross for saving hundreds of people during the Westgate Mall terror raid has killed two people after being ambushed in Kenya.
Dominic Troulan, 54, was shot twice in the leg during the attack in Nairobi after gunmen riding on a motorbike attacked him.
The veteran, who spent 30 years in the military before retiring as a major, became the first civilian to win the George Cross in decades for his bravery during the 2013 mall siege in Nairobi.
At least 67 people were murdered in the attac but Troulan saved the lives of more than 100 people trapped inside the building as al Shabaab terrorists were slaughtering civilians.

Trump needs him on his safety detail.
I’ve known people who loved Kenya, and Dominic Troulan must be one of them. He’s an impressive, no nonsense “security consultant”, and that country is lucky to have him. I’d like to think I’m brave, but I’d be leaving the country (any country other than the United States) at about this point. Unless you’re a real operator willing to stay hair-trigger alert every moment, after the first few shootouts it’s time to rethink your long-term plans.
” Trump needs him on his safety detail.”
Hell of a good replacement for that broad who said she would NOT take one for the Donald....
In fairness, she said she did not WANT to take one for him, not that she wouldn't. Nobody in her right mind WANTS to take one for anybody!

Er, her words ...
“And I would take jail time over a bullet or an endorsement for what I believe to be disaster to this country and the strong and amazing women and minorities who reside here. Hatch Act be damned.”

That’s the first time I saw that quote. Mea culpa.
A Major after 30 years? I believe that’s the equivalent of the American O-4.
The limeys have a strange promotion system. The guy was the equivalent of a Company Commander in a Regiment. You are promoted within the Regiment but you can be detached and be promoted outside the Regiment and still be a member of the Regiment in your promoted Rank.
Had it explained to me one time and the head still spins.
Allowing islam to exist in your country is suicide. Outlaw islam and its filthy followers.
This ol’ boy is no one to screw around with.
