Not only was the Northern Ireland conflict especially harsh due to the inability to pick the IRA members out of a crowd of civilians, the entire environment was designed to fit in a 4:3 aspect ratio!

Had a colour sergeant during my training who's first deployment at 18 (his first patrol was on his 18th birthday) was Northern Ireland in the late 90s. During this patrol they stopped a prominent IRA man's daughter from being raped down an alley, then escorted her home. A few days later they were out on a patrol when 3 men came out of a Catholic bar and watched them as they patrolled down the street in the bogside. Just as they passed one man shouted up "Ere Royal...we'll remember that" and they had zero issues from the Catholic community from their entire tour.

I was there in ‘98 and whilst it had calmed down a lot we were welcomed to Belfast with a mortar attack. The Omagh bomb also happened whilst I was out there. But most days were spent chasing joy riders and the occasional knee capping. In 6 months I had one round fired at me whilst stood at a cordon whilst dealing with a suspicious package. I can only imagine what it was like in the 60s and 70s. I really enjoyed my time in Belfast and would have been back there this year for a long weekend if Covid hadn’t happened.

This British soldier got friendly with an Irish family who kept on inviting him to their house for dinner. This would keep on going on for a while so they could earn his trust. However, the army caught wind of this. During one night the soldier exited the house and went towards his car and he was stopped by other soldiers who alerted him to an IED under his car.

No such thing as a glorious justified war where every killing is celebration and every soldier or freedom fighter or psycho terrorist a saint at least until the space aliens invade.

Yes, my former spouse was a child when the shit hit the fan an his earliest memories sound like a dream. He thought the world sparkled but all it was was shattered glass. And the sound of the step when the army stopped at the houses: clang. He still has a deep, circular scar from being questioned on his way to meet a friend for his birthday. I've seen a few of them. You know the come from the rifle. Still he had the closest friends both sides and used to get them to keep me entertained with things like the military alphabet (which tickles me to no end. Foxtrot is the end of me), and showing me how fast it takes to dismantle a rifle and put it back together again. He didn't much like me but his friends were all good to me. I was raised by Marines straight out of Vietnam and I was my father's child so the things I learned. No wonder 'regular men' irritate the hell out of me. I wish I'd got that Para with the most amazing eyes i have ever seen on a man. Mine are emerald green and there is a crazy humour in them and his were not emerald green (that I could tell) but he still had the laughter in them. I know if he gave those eyes and that humour.... he's knock all hetero females and maybe anything living straight off their legs. I've never been brazen or coy so ... it's not something you learn being raised by a pack of wolves, I guess.

The IRA checkmated nobody. As soon as British special forces took the gloves off and began wiping out their active service units, they screamed not fair and put the peace feelers out. I had just completed my first month in the army when we got the news that the IRA's so called elite had been turned into colanders by the SAS at Loughgall. We had a party in the mess when the SAS got some more of them at Gibraltar. After another SAS ambush at Coagh, Martin McGuinness sent a letter to the British government telling them that the conflict was over. About 12 years after that, the IRA was shown just how comprehensively they had been penetrated by the British intelligence services. They started murdering each other after that. I was serving in NI at the time. We had another party.

@@bendebeer8607 Not pissed off at all. I just feel it necessary sometimes to correct some people's misperception of the IRA as plucky gentlemen terrorists who cunningly outwitted the British army. They were in fact nothing more than a pack of armed criminal scum who used women and children as human shields which is why a precision instrument like the SAS was used to deal with them whenever possible. What you have to realise is that unlike the IRA, the army had a strict arrest policy which was difficult to execute when the provos could whip up an instant riot with kids throwing bricks petrol bombs and you're constantly aware that a stray bullet from your rifle could land a massive propaganda coup for the IRA and you a manslaughter charge. Don't buy any of their bullshit about not targeting civilians either because they murdered innocent farmers in the border areas simply because they were Protestants. They even terrorised their own communities by murdering anyone who spoke out against them. They raped women and they sexually abused children, none of which could be reported to the authorities out of fear of being branded an informer or a "tout". The big man himself Gerry Adams even covered up his father's disgusting sex crimes then doubled down by covering up his brother raping and sodomising his own daughter. That was the true calibre of the IRA.

I used sa80 and fals in the Provence, when you fire a 80 you think oh well I might have wounded some one, when you fired that 762 you knew the chap wasnt going home.

The issue with the SLR was carrying ammo for the thing and urban combat it was very long, the SA80 that replaced it was better for urban combat, the A1 didn't too bad in NI as it wasn';t in the conditions it hated. Though I remeber correctly the UK forces did use m16s from time to time.
