Who are "The Q"?

I can't remember if Rayelan wrote about them in an article on the Forum, or if she sent me the information in an email, but here goes. This is from my memory, I haven't taken the time to look anything up.

When Gunther was in prison he had several of his friends guarding Rayelan. She has written about the things they told her while they sat around her kitchen table eating cookies.

I believe she said they were all Admirals, I could be wrong here.

After Gunther disappeared, two of them became Rayelan's sources. If it weren't for them Rumor Mill would not have continued.

There are different Q's. You can tell by the writing style. Some are nicer than others. One even explained that the messages they leave on this forum are necessarily meant for the "readers" of the Forum.

The Q message that made me realize how tuned in they were was the one about ten days ago concerning Hillary.

The very next day there was proof that he knew what he was talking about, and the proof has just kept coming.

If the men were all Admirals, then I would expect them to be anywhere from 55 to 70. Rayelan told me that several of the younger men (the ones that are only 55 or so.. Gunther's contemporaries) were taught their skills while they were teenagers by a Marine Recon who had been in WWII with Skorzeny. That story was so fascinating to me that I never forgot it.

If you were trained by a Marine, then he probably called you "boot" a lot. So I would imagine that "boot" is an expression they are used to. Not having been in the service, I wouldn't know if the term is still used in boot camp or not.

The best way to understand THE Q is to use the search engine. Do a search from the beginning of this Forum for the messages posted by Q.

I think you will see that he/they do have a track record.

I think you will also see that they aren't all as full of themselves as this one was today.

I think they tell us as much as they can without saying so much as to endanger men and/or operations. If you don't understand that, then you have never had a friend or husband on a covert mission where secrecy is the only thing that keeps him alive.
