There has been some confusion and misinformation surrounding the identity of the veterans who are involved in security at the Stradey Park Hotel.
Speaking to Carmarthenshire News Online Bob Thomas of the Llanelli Veterans Association said that it had come to his attention that people were approaching Llanelli veterans and asking them why they were not supporting the local community.
He said that the members of the Veterans Association had nothing whatsoever to do with security at the site and that the association was all about providing support for the community in the community.
The company providing security is Veteran owned. https://leadelementsecurity.co.uk/
