Wow.....what a DB
It really is sad because there was so much potential. Even if we could only clearly distinguish the roles of a DM in the various parts of the world and situations...because that is something that there is OBVIOUSLY some confusion on.
Sorry PF but I am going to call bull**** on this point. Your statement "I can't tell you now how I know...." just lends credibility to the fact that you do not know. I do not care who said what, you DO NOT have the ability to answer that question....nobody but the deceased can answer that AND even they will not know for certain until the situation presented itself. So, why not cut the crap of pretending you have factual information when you do not. If you cannot or will not cite your source and allow verification, then stop presenting anything as factual.
It seems that almost without exception, 95% of the posts on this thread are either trying to lay blame or trying to cover arse. - I guess that is why the Mod demoted this to the bowels of the boat, an insightful move obviously.

The answer is yes. Cannot tell you how I know this with certainty now but no one would have gone to 100 ft with just a DG.
