Task Force[edit]

Difficult to assign, because of its topic. Finally assigned to Intel task force, because of broad nature of actions, and commonality of intelligence gathering to the assignments. auntieruth (talk) 17:19, 2 June 2015 (UTC)[reply]

G4S is American now?[edit]

Understanding that the company bought Wackenhut, but that doesn't automatically make the company American ain't it? While it still remains as this form before it's acquired by Allied Universal, G4S should be in the UK section, not the US. MetroMapFinalRender.svg (talk) 19:50, 21 February 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Having regard to its less than perfect record, I would be content if it wasn't associated with the UK . Velella ^{Velella Talk} 20:22, 21 February 2021 (UTC)[reply]

That doesn't really diminish the fact that its ownership and control is still based in London, with its Global Head Office in the city: https://www.g4s.com/en-gb/site-tools/contact-us MetroMapFinalRender.svg (talk) 05:35, 22 February 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Maybe that should be added to the "notes" section. Right now the HQ is listed in the US, so that can lead to confusion. - wolf 11:06, 22 February 2021 (UTC)[reply]
