This Is Northern Ireland, not the Republic of Ireland.

​@ashwinstewart lots of people from the Republic join the British army

@@makeasylumsgreatagain864 very true, but the OP refers to Ireland the country, as well as the people.

Is that Benone?

[@jpfarrell66]

They are not 2 Royal Irish, the correct abbreviation is 2 R. Irish. I know the regimental hierarchy want to be Rangers again but it ain't happening

[@stewarty28]

Correct only 1 Royal Irish are Rangers. All the home service Batts were private’s. They were always Royal Irish Regiment. We on the other hand many names over the years. until the amalgamation

@@alanmcmillan6969 So why did you say 'Irish army' when you knew it was the British army? Because you didn't know.

[@Arborist5851]

Having worked woth the reserve its depressing how poorly trained they are or how little training they get.
They where dangerous compared to the regular soldier

[@christopherjones6607]

I'm working on a regular army base..and they are just as poor in standard terrible how the standard of the British army has dropped
