I was there too!
The Siberskys got back to Flag and were promptly busted by LRH and MSH for doing that crazy stuff we witnessed without his authority. He and his wife left the SO about a year later after the RPF I heard from my Mum who was in the first RPF on the Flagship Apollo at he time because she had filled in a questionaire that asked if people had been "Loyal Officers" or "Rebels" of the Galactic Patrol Command. She filled in "Loyal" like some others and was busted the next day. They had to undergo a mock "Demonic" Ritual in the ship's hold where they were forced to destroy carboard mock-ups of the Orgs in front of the crew as punishment.
The stats for the 1974 Battle of Britain campaign were crap and appalling. Zero recruits (who stayed for no more than a month), huge expenditures and bad PR in the press in the UK, at a time when the country was going through tough times with the economy and the three day week.
We UK Sea Org staff were cold, hungry, tired and bullied at a time when we should have been treated fairly and decently whilst working together in a nice way.
Seeds of Doubt were sown then about the whole thing.
Hubbard seemed to be supporting the efforts of little hitlers and penalising the efforts of the hard working staff people who were there because we thought we could help Mankind and ourselves in the process towards a saner world.
I seriously believe that David Miscavige believes what he is doing is best based on his personal contact with LRH and MSH and his reaction as a result. He really thinks he is doing good to save Scientology from the imagined monsters and was prepared to steam-roll over anyone who got in his way. As witnessed by my brother was a senior CMO Officer who worked in DM's office in the 1980's. He was on the WDC.
