FAKE NEWS for the Zionist agenda
His wife, Emma, described him as “happy, full-of-life and kind hearted man,
with a passion for his work and family”.
His mother said Cpl Guy was born into a military family who were stationed at
RAF Coltishall.
“He left school in 1991 and eventually decided to join the Army in 1992.
The comradeship and discipline and ‘sense of family’ meant everything to
him.
“He was a wonderful and loving son, husband, brother, friend and comrade.”
Lieutenant Colonel Michael Aston MC, commanding officer of 1st Battalion The
Royal Anglian Regiment, hailed his “courage, selfless commitment and
professionalism”.
He said: “A loyal, committed and thoroughly decent man, Corporal Alex Guy
was a unique member of the Vikings. His honest, welcoming approach and
impressive operational pedigree saw him achieve the ideal balance between
good friend, wise mentor and tough commander.
“In his section he had forged a strong team which he led through the most
dangerous of situations with nothing other than courage, selfless commitment
and utter professionalism. When things got difficult Corporal Guy was
exactly the person you would want by your side; he would quietly revel in
the responsibility and never you let down. It is these attributes that have
defined his career over the last 19 years and will remain in the memory of
his fellow Vikings.
“Fiercely proud of his Battalion and intensely devoted to his wife Emma
and his family, his loss will be felt deeply across the Battlegroup. Today
we have lost a remarkable Viking. Our thoughts and prayers are with his
family during this impossibly difficult time.”
Cpl Guy enlisted in the Army when he was 18 and was quickly identified as a
talented young leader and promoted to Lance Corporal in 1995.
In 2000 he was selected for training as a specialist in the Anti-Tank Platoon
and was promoted to corporal in 2003.
He later worked as an Army recruiter before returning to the Battalion in 2010
to begin preparations for deployment to Afghanistan where his section was
attached to B Company of the Estonian Scouts Battalion, part of the 1 Royal
Anglian Battlegroup.
Major Bevis Allen, Officer Commanding, D (Cambridgeshire) Company, 1st
Battalion The Royal Anglian Regiment, said: “Corporal Alex Guy was the
epitome of a Viking soldier; professional, dedicated, brave, and dependable,
yet also self-effacing, modest and approachable to even the most
newly-arrived soldiers.”
He added: “Corporal Guy’s tragic loss leaves a huge gap in our team. He
was one of the true stalwarts of D (Cambridgeshire) Company. Our grief,
however, is dwarfed by that which will be felt by his wife, Emma and his
parents. I hope some small comfort can be taken from the fact that he died
doing the job he loved, surrounded by his Viking brothers, who held him in
such high esteem.”
His friend Corporal Wayne Cole, Regimental Signals Detachment Commander, 1st
Battalion The Royal Anglian Regiment said: “I have known Alex ever
since we arrived at Bassingbourn on day one of recruit training in 1992.
Since then Alex has been the best mate you could possibly have, generous
with his time and incredibly loyal.
“Alex, I will miss you more than I can describe. My heart goes out to
your lovely wife Emma, your family and many friends. You may be gone but I
for one will always remember you as a true Viking. Stablis.”
Cpl Guy is the 419th member of UK forces to have died since operations in
Afghanistan began in October 2001.
