Glyn Hardy aka Glyn Ross McBain Bloating Para PTI..
BLOATERS


Welcome to another Walt in the form of Glyn Hardy (profile deleted after our come on down, but now back up again!) who has over egged the pudding in regards to his service to become a fitness guru based in Poole and base his business model on the back of Walting.
The Tip Off
For a few years I’ve wondered about an apparent ex-Para PTI Captain (with a BA Hons in “Eng Litt” from Sandhurst) and three different names .
His name is Glyn Hardy at the moment. It has been Glyn McBain and Glyn Baldwin prior to that. He’s a PT/’entrepreneur’ in the Poole area having allegedly come from Portsmouth in 2008 after a military career which doesn't make much sense.
He has a few different social media accounts and one LinkedIn account states he was a “soldier” in the British Army from 1997 to 2010…
However he was working at a local health club from 2008, so was he holding down a job as a regular Army Officer and his local gym at the same time.
He runs a recruitment business and signs off his emails as “Capt Glyn McBain BA Hons Eng Litt” (sic)

A photo taken in 2008 when Glyn was trying to make it as a male model… not as a soldier in the British Army as one of his LinkedIn profiles claims.


In some photos you can see the airborne tattoo he started to have lasered off at 30-ish because he wanted to join the Marines and said it would get him disqualified from selection.

He now gives talks based on his ‘experience’ managing people for 18 years. He’s not managed anything we’re aware of since 2008 when we met him.










The photos of him in uniform were taken when he got married in 2014 at the Poole Guildhall. With quite the rack.


He did get some maritime security work around 2012 but the photos he claimed he took on board are actually lifted from some Russian shipping blog.


So we did our thing and checked records via our contacts
Glyn ‘Hardy’ apparently served in Airborne RE over the period 1997 – 2010.
The only Airborne RE units (at that time) were 9 Para Sqn RE and/or 49 Airborne EOD Sqn RE.
No-one (Cpls, Sgts, SSgts, WOs, SSMs, Lts, Capts, OCs, LtCols) from those units (those in charge over the stated period) including Sqn SSMs and Sqn 2ics (who know all the names for manning purposes), have ever heard of him as a Para trained engineer.


RE OFFICERS LIST
RE HQ check the ‘Corps’ commissioned Officers list, including LE Offrs.ARMY LIST
The Army List is details of every single officer who has served in the army going back to 1702, and in what unit/s, including LE and DE Offrs.WHAMI
The Whole Army Master Index, which details every enlisted soldier since the BOER war.LONDON GAZETTE-COMMISSIONS
The London Gazette (advanced search) shows every officers commission date from when they pass out of Sandhurst as an OCdt (RMAS) to when he leaves service (resigns his commission). If it’s not in the London Gazette, it didn’t happen.
When he claims to have served he was really working at Esporta, Cabot Lane.m in 2008. Then changed to Virgin Active and is now David Lloyd, its believed he’s back there working in the gym again now.
So we did our thing.
No trace could be found of the names he uses on the P Coy or Para database
It’s claimed he may have spent a short time in the RE but this is yet to be fully confirmed so for the time being he has Bloater status until fully verified.
We then posted up a CC1 to members of the unit he claimed to be a serving officer with between the dates he mentioned on his LinkedIn bio.


















This went on and on and on. Not one person could vouch for him in the units he portrayed himself as having served with.
So in a nut shell.
Pretended he was in a very close knit RE parachute unit, where everyone knows everyone, where they have Facebook page spanning the decades since 1940, and the members vouch for people who have served in the unit since 1941.
Pretended he was a PTI trained officer, because we all know the officers are the best PTIs, they run 12 courses a year for officers, because they have nothing else to do apart from taking Phys sessions…?
He never did P Coy.
He never did his basic Para cse.
He was never SF.
Got married in a set of RE Offrs No1s.
His wife most likely thinks he was an officer in the army, and has most likely told her some massive lie, and some bizarre excuse why he had his tattoos removed?
Has now had the tattoos removed.
His real name is not hardy.
His pictures have since been removed and any pictures with his top off are cropped to hide his wings and crossed swords … Hardy may be a successful at PT but he started all that off Walting he was an highly decorated Para Officer and physical Training Instructor. He knew CIVPOP would lap it up.
We reached out to him but he did not want to play and the within a very short period from this going up.


His Facebook page went from this

What a CUMPER
