(28 Jan 1977) RR7704B UK ULSTER PATROLLING CROSSMAGLEN
The British government maintains 14,000 troops in
Northern Ireland to keep the peace between Protestants
and Catholics, loyalists to the United Kingdom and those
who want to sever Ulster's constitutional links with
mainland Britain. The job of the soldiers is a
dangerous one - already this year three have died
and in 1972 some 130 were killed by terrorists'
bombs, booby-traps and gunmen. This item looks at
the work of the Royal Highland Fusiliers detachment
at Crossmaglen, the front line.
