Hence, they were never "officially" part of any regiment. Not only was there greater secrecy on their operations, most military people were even unaware of their existence. The current LRRP teams are drawn out from the 3rd SF regiment and it does exist on paper.Hind Driverhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17335805921324884242noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9079007316930841006.post-13851650157886148882007-02-23T16:33:00.000+05:302007-02-23T16:33:00.000+05:30LTTE intelligence (TOSSIE) already knows about the...LTTE intelligence (TOSSIE) already knows about the existance of this unit. It's just that they cant detect their location or identities. So i dont think it is a risk diuscussing this on a open forum as long as identity details and safe house locations are revealed. <BR/><BR/>Defencenet, wasnt the old LRRP a part of 3rd Special forces regiment as well?Lightning_Struck_Towerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14675907979701137462noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9079007316930841006.post-49126961382964106622007-02-23T15:04:00.000+05:302007-02-23T15:04:00.000+05:30Its unlike that the LTTE doesn't already know abou...Its unlike that the LTTE doesn't already know about the existence of such units. The more important matter is that their identities are not revealed and other than a select few "on a need to know basis" no one else is privy to information concerning them. That means no gallantry medals pinned, no unit displays, and no public recognition. The problem with the Millennium City raid was that everyone was in a state of "peace euphoria" and no one was willing to stand up to them.Hind Driverhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17335805921324884242noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9079007316930841006.post-10244117844262005662007-02-23T14:35:00.000+05:302007-02-23T14:35:00.000+05:30I feel I m the happiest person to hear this good n...I feel I m the happiest person to hear this good news.
