Some Agent Code Numbers Known to Ingram:
Brian Nelson: Agent 6137.
Willie Carlin: Agent 3007.
Frank Hegarty: Agent 3018.
Freddie Scappaticci: Agent (Zilch)

Freddie Scappaticci Forenames Initially Used:
“Alfredo”; “Freddy”; “Frederick”; Fred. If Ingram was
familiar with Freddie Scappaticci, having read his computer profile, his
alleged files, and having had discussions with reputed handlers, why the
initial incorrect use of the man’s forename?

Stakeknife Codename:
In the initial use of Scappaticci’s alleged codename,
it was spelt “Steak Knife”. Why the failure to use the correct title from the outset when this should have been known to
Mr. Ingram from his claimed reading of FRU files: files, even if they did
exist, he would properly have had no professional connection or access to.

Note: The Stakeknife book was published in 2004. An
RTE radio pre-launch interview of Ingram by Cathal MacCoille took place on
Tuesday morning 17.02.04. Other interviews would follow. To my memory the book
went on sale from April 2004.
(Without assuming a fraternal connection with the
Galway based man, the latter is said to have left the locality in early July
2004, after about four years residence.)

The Sunday Times, 08.02.04 – (By Liam
Clarke) “On February 1, 2000 the draft of a memoir [Ingram] was

weeks later with the MoD who used it in a court case against him.”

The comparison between the Metcalfe and Ingram
positions in the republic is for making assessment. In accepting that they are
different entities, the pursuit of wanting to know more is to determine if
there are other connections.

As said in the list of contents: “6) A one page
presentation entitled ‘Ingram/Metcalfe – Had you noticed?’ A juxtaposition with
the two previous items.”
Ingram/Metcalfe –
Had you Noticed?
Both believed to have taken up residence in the RoI at around the same time. (Coincidental to the birth
of Stakeknife.)
Both believed to have exited from the RoI at around
the same time. (Coincidental to the post Stakeknife book release.)
Both are understood to be ex-British army.
Both are from England.
Both are believed to be from Yorkshire.
Both are believed to have Leeds connections.
Both had a cross border familiarity.
Both used pseudonyms.
Both are practiced con-merchants/scam artists.
Postscripts:
While postulating that the above may be a coincidence
of tram tracks, a question worth asking is: is it so? Another question posed a
short while earlier deserves repeating. In all the CVs of Ingram, there is the
conspicuous absence of what he was doing and where he was based between his
army discharge in 1991 and the birth of Stakeknife via the good offices of The Sunday Times in August 1999.
Was he working undercover abroad? Were Messrs Ingram
and Metcalfe co-fraternal in the Republic of Ireland and elsewhere? And
previously as members of the British army?
Some years ago there was a suggestion that Martin
Ingram was Frank Hegarty’s handler who used the cover name “Brian”. It can’t be
so. Ingram was only stationed at Ebrington barracks from 1982 to 1984. His
given job description was “collator”.
He would say he worked as a “co-handler” to Frank
Hegarty. While the term may not be a valid job description it could have had an
on the ground utility status in that at times he accompanied “Brian” and other
handlers when meeting agents.
I find no fault with that possibility.
But he can’t be Brian. He wasn’t qualified, for starters, and he was
too young at the time to have had a historic connection with Hegarty. Besides,
from late year 1984 to end November 1987, Ingram was based outside of Northern
Ireland.
Frank Hegarty exited from Derry at the behest of MI5
working with his handler and others who wished to attach him to the uncovering
of three compromised arms caches over the border in the republic in January
1986.
On the other hand Brian Metcalfe was old enough. Did
he have a fraternal military connection with Ingram? Could he be the handler
named “Brian”? He was at ease with the name: it was his choice of forename to
two known pseudonyms, May and Metcalfe.
The determination whether this is so, or no, is down
to others. Could Metcalfe be “Brian”?
Was he and Ingram fraternally and/or otherwise
connected?
