What is Eagle's Real Name

Help, I have just noticed that Eagle's real name is Charles Richard Buckingham. So why the hell do all the stories refer to him as Rob?

Nope neither had I. He is always referred to as Rob in the BAF stories and I have (as yet) found no explanation as to why that would be. To my knowledge Rob is not short for Richard or Charles?

I have noticed another error in the Action Force profiles. Both Barracuda and Stalker have got the same AF number! 342102.

Is this an AF administrative error or a BAF printing error? Has anyone got a boxed SAS Panther to tell us?

It vos probably muppetry intended to keep the reading classes happy. Bucks was always a grafter rather than prancing aboot like a rupert-twit. Plus it vould haff been daft if Stakeout/Jonesy was muttering about 'his nibs the nutter' etc. "to Charles Richard Philipp Arthur George" Buckingham in between emotional bouts of eternal thanks to Charlie for rescuing from Parkurst after the bodged Bootle bank job in the first place.

ja, gotta keep the main demographic happy - half the readership of BAF vos probably called Rob. Rather than Charlie-Rupert etc....

Anyways, since when could Stakeout speak English? Maybe he meant to say Karl and came out with Rob. Scouser to the bitter end...
