War hero soldier stabbed to death
Guardsman McGee was awarded the Queen's Commendation for Bravery
A 28-year-old man has been arrested after a Scottish soldier who was decorated for bravery in Iraq was fatally stabbed in Renfrewshire.
Scots Guardsman Paul McGee, 28, from Lochwinnoch, was found seriously injured in the town's McConnell Road at 0125 GMT on Sunday.
He was taken to the Royal Alexandra Hospital in Paisley but died a short time later.
The arrested man is expected to appear at Paisley Sheriff Court on Monday.
Guardsman McGee had been working in an army recruiting office in Scotland at the time of his death.
He was awarded the Queen's Commendation for Bravery in July 2008 after risking his life trying to save fellow Guardsman Stephen Ferguson while on a tour of duty in Iraq.
The whole of the Scots Guards has been shocked by the tragic death of one of its heroes
Lieutenant Colonel Lincoln Jopp
Guardsman Ferguson, 31, of 1st Battalion Scots Guards, originally from Lanarkshire, was injured when his Warrior armoured vehicle slid into a canal while manoeuvring in the dark during a routine patrol near Basra city in December 2007.
Guardsman McGee and other soldiers freed him from the vehicle and gave first aid. He was flown back to the UK for medical treatment but later died from his injuries.
The dead soldier's commanding officer, Lieutenant Colonel Lincoln Jopp, said Guardsman McGee was "as brave as they come".
"The whole of the Scots Guards has been shocked by the tragic death of one of its heroes," he said.
"The men of the 1st Battalion Scots Guard and the regimental family join me in sending out sincerest and most heartfelt condolences to Paul's mother Anne, his sister Kelly and his family and friends in Lochwinnoch. We honour our fallen."

No it isn't you don't know what irony is.

He survived a tour of duty only to come home and get stabbed by a petty criminal.
I'd say that's pretty ironic.

Sounds more like coincidence to me.
Or just a case of being in the wrong place at the wrong time.
Sometimes life really sucks.
Kind of sad he comes back from war only to get stabbed by one of his own people.
Welcome to the world

lololololololol?
it was a hit
not everyone can take out a 28 year old seasoned soldier.
albeit he's part of Scottish military.
That's awful.
A guardsman...
God damn I hope the arsehole who did it gets a good trashing in prison for killing a soldier.

He'll get life for this. I'm glad the British life sentence is 15 years in prison, will teach the bastard a lesson

Sad thing is the killer probably won't be executed. A waste of life killing someone who did something with his life, only for the killer to live out the rest of his days in a prison.
Makes you sick.

Are you fucking kidding me? You are glad this fuck is only getting 15 years? The man he killed wasn't even 30, for all we know he could've lived till he was 100, and that guy stole the majority of his life from him.
So fucked up.
I think he was being satire.
-maybe not-

The three main reasons I'm against the death penalty are :
1) It's actually cheaper to let them rot in prison
2) They rot in prison
3) Being wrongly sentenced to death when innocent must be the absolute worst thing ever.

Yeah kill him then he'll suffer and really learn from his action :rolleyes:
You really don't know how long 15 years is, when you hit 15, pm me and tell me how long that felt like.
This is why i couldn't give a crap about my country, i'm not gonna go to war and risk my life to defend people like that.
