A British Army instructional video from 1976 "Terrorism Patrol do's and don'ts"

Dramatised Army Instructional film in which soldiers of the Parachute Regiment demonstrate that any apparently innocent item or vehicle may contain a terrorist bomb. The film shows the correct way to deal with an explosive device, staying well away, clearing the area of all civilians and military personnel and reporting to higher authority.

Sennelager for me everything seemed to go Bang. But best training ever. Got you in a mindset.

In '76 my dad was on tour in NI with 3 Para, one thing about this that would drive him mad is the flak jackets. Paras didn't wear them over the top of their Denison smock! They wore it underneath because the pattern was recognisable and they wanted to stand out and be known that it was Paras in the area. Although I'd imagine that while filming this, they were politely told that over the top of the smock was the correct way to wear a flak jacket and didn't have a choice

I'm suspicious, why do all the civvies look like squaddies in drag? Moustaches and sideburns

[@Hants_Prints]

They probably are! definitely not bootnecks, they'd be naked 😂

@@Hants_Prints for NI training they'd get jock regiments tanked up before acting as rioters, squaddies would get a kicking if they fell into their hands. Occàonally the drunk jocks would win the riot lol

Still feel it today. Second nature while there. VERY hard to shake off and still like my back against a wall so I can see what's coming.

Who is the narrator? Im sure I know the voice, but for the life of me I can't recall who it is.

[@FirstLast-ve6jg]

Bring the boys home.

[@thePronto]

(In that cheesy voice-over accent) "If you see a known terrorist placing a suspicious object, don't arrest him, because he is just 'out getting a bag of chips for his grannie'. If the object explodes, killing and maiming innocent people, remember: no one is more innocent than the bomber. Especially since he rejects 'British' laws. Until, of course, he can win his appeal of conviction, then the laws are just."
