- (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.

Did ya ever hear the likes of it... Yer man saying that a Scottish regiment was protecting the locals in Crossmaglen. I laughed so hard that my colostomy bag over flowed.
lol i know..... i guess thats why they call it propaganda..
sad thing is it works the population on the mainland uk swallow this stuff hook line and sinker even the soldiers themselves start to think it after awhile
Kekistani nationalist well they did with the help of the ruc, and the security forces, but not any more, they would obviously love to but without the back up of the state they wouldn't have it in them
Kekistani nationalist hahaha they won, wake up, the people they butchered and held a privileged position over are now issuing your giro's lol, this was never about a united ireland just equality lololoo
Kekistani nationalist never was, even if you listen to them now it's a new ireland, equality, that's all they ever wanted, and they achieved that, have a nice day lad
Kekistani nationalist that's how this all started, South Africa wouldn't have got a look in, now they are in government and the tide has turned

You're right Alastair
Same as the word ‘Troubles’ to describe a war.

I remember when this happened. I lived up the road from these Barracks when this happened I remember it well the windows in the house shook. That happened a few times when I lived there. What gets me is your man saying how can you just murder men like this talking about the soldiers But they have been doing it to the Irish for decades. I don’t think any man woman or child should be murdered but it’s no big deal to them when a catholic gets brutally murdered but when it’s one of there own all of a sudden it’s barbaric. It ain’t no fun when the rabbits got the gun. I lost good friends in school from this war young innocent children. I pray for a United Ireland one day and for all the souls that lost there life in this war on the Irish. 🇮🇪

Crossmaglen is a relatively quiet village since the British left in 2007.
It wasn't even supposed to be in Northern Ireland, it was not included in the first 2 original partition maps drawn up I don't think.
A slip of a British pen on a map caused all this. How Crossmaglen ended up in Northern Ireland I'll never know.
There was an annoying fold in their map.
It’s part of county Armagh so that is why
You can have the place back. We certainly don’t want it! Crap hole.
It’s now a crap hole for washed up provo’s to sell their laundered diesel
It was part of county armagh. and the whole or county armagh was included in northern Ireland. similar things happened all along the border.
The amount of money and resources the UK government put into this operation is simply astonishing.
Unfortunately they didn't deploy battle tanks. Centurion AVRE's were utilised for only one operation. No Chieftains.
And it a complete waste of time and money . Did they learn nothing from centuries of conflict against the Irish people?

😂@@Mr_English_GB
Best Provo unit, like the North Armagh Brigade.
I was there in 1987 (B Coy, 1 Royal Hampshire). The towers were up by then. My 4th tour. I remember hard-targeting from the RUC station. As I recall the South Armagh tour was alternating rifle coys between rural patrolling from BBK via Lynx (were we mortared there as my brick were taking off in a Lynx). I saw lads hit and fall but soon we were gone down to the border to dropped off. Then there was time in the Golf towers. Finally patrolling XMG. Despite losses and seeing friends lose body parts, I enjoyed it. If you’re a pro footballer you want to get on the pitch. My hardest tour was Fermanagh in 1982 as the Falklands was kicking off. 1 Para took over from us but teased us saying ‘stag on’ because they were sure they’d go down south. I finished my year with Recce pln (formerly COP) on South Georgia.
I hope you’re well mate. Infantry ⚔️

Never knew it was a demolition site, it used to be the RUC station!! With funny enough a lawn where they used to play croquet before the army turned up.!! I lived there from 1958 to 1987. My whole teenage years was destroyed by the "troubles" and in Crossmaglen the army!! Grow up people this is a film designed to change history, the army should never have been in Cross and at my age I am still living with the consequences!!!

“usually without warning” how British.
Most have been fricking annoying having foreigners stop you in your own country demanding to know your ID, where you've come from, where you're going to, etc. and if you don't answer you'll be kept there for hours by a bunch of thugs.
It must of also been hard for loyal Ulsters having Marxist revolutionary's hopping over the border from the Republic to blow them up and intimidate them with regular violence. Hey ho.
Read a book by a senior British army commander - think it was Carver - which said most IRA attacks (90% plus) started in NI - this hopping over the border thing was largely a myth. Anyway, it wasn't a border that most people in Ireland ever wanted anyway.
That's what terrorist do when they invaded a country. Look what American and England did to the people of Afghanistan.
Where in Crossmaglen that fire burns true the patriotic flame will never die and when you hear that battle cry it will be the fighting men from Crossmaglen
HoHo ! You Jest ? As a percentage of active members , Sth Armagh had the most informers. By the end Britain was receiving so much info.
@@robroy3838 bullhshit
XMG was described by an American journalist as being "as mean as cat shit" I think he was being over-generous.
Of the 6 counties in NI, only 4 originally had Protestant majorities. Now it’s only 2, and of those, South Down is RC majority. The bulk of Protestants are in Antrim & North Down.
A plebiscite would be interesting.
As long as its down to reason and arguement.....not bombs and bullets. I'm not sure it is as simple as the Catholic/ Protestant split you see it as.
And a third of RCs would vote to remain in the U.K. Polling consistently shows this.

Thank God those bad old days are over.
May Ireland be unified peacefully and no other lives be lost to achieve it.
it might be more peaceful but it will never unify . the people dont want it .
Unionists only have a majority left in 2 counties of Ireland's 32. I'm afraid 'the people' will just have to relocate to Britain if they can't live in a unified Ireland. Their choice.
Yes, Antrim and north Down are unionist heartlands. They might remain as some kind of Gibraltar. But the rest of Ulster will be ruled from Dublin.
It's a question of democracy and ultimately democracy will decide. Saying it won't happen because you don't like it won't change the reality if a border poll votes for unification.
...and only 39% identified themselves as British!
I was Mortared in XMG in 1994 putting in new concrete base footings for Alpha Sanger by the main gate.
We also replaced the old Borucki Sanger with a new one that had a fire suppression system in built due to a previous attack (in Newry I think) using a slurry tanker filled with fuel.
Definitely not a place where you relaxed.

British Empire never understands ireland,
True ✌️🇨🇮
This story was published in 1977.
Wow! So the lRA won? Unbelievable
Protecting the locals ??? WTF ??? 😂
It's the definition of propaganda. Disgrace
The original idea behind the deployment of the British Army was indeed to protect the locals and initially this was appreciated by both sides, Catholic’s included. Everything went south after 1972 and the Army was then seen as the enemy just like the RUC. As far as the Army was concerned, the official mission statement never changed especially in official communication. The reality of course was a bit different.
@@paulnelson6277 you cannot be serious
@@MarkIRE1 perfectly serious. If it wasn't for the Army, there would have been a lot more deaths.
@@danielf1313 The British Army were there to keep the Brit governments interests intact in Northern Ireland... they didn't give a fuck about the Catholic people that was a good propaganda feed by the Brit media... the PIRA just exploited it for what it was...
If the government had have allowed the army to actually fight back this war would have ended a lot faster.
They did they just made more enemies. It was completely unnecessary conflict. The only thing they had to do was keep the peace. The nationalists treated them well and welcomed them. It’s when they started helping loyalist mobs burn down nationalist homes, the welcome mat was taken away. Besides if Bloody Sunday was a recruitment tool for the provos can you imagine wide spread killing of Irish civies on a huge scale would have had the Irish people on mass enlisting either in the provos or the Irish army, all intelligence from the republic would have been stopped and it’s very likely the public outcry would have resulted into an even more brutal ground war and made things thousands of times worse than they were.
Wow your funny 😂😂😂😂😂
@@ciaranbrk it was certainly a wake up call to the British government!
Such as the indiscriminate murdering of people like the Black and Tans did in the early 1920's ? That did nothing either to endure British victory or enhance the reputation of Britain. Get a satellite photo . Separate countries. Any dimwit can deduce that.
If the terrorist had stayed in England there would not have been any troubles.
Sweeping up mud - only in the Army.
When are they in the interest of balanced reporting going to post videos of them physically abusing the local population.

rapier1954 Farrell but they are our property and therefore it is our business . its always a bad idea to rage against someone who owns you . it never turns out well .
David Harrison It became your property after you took it by force from the Irish. So it is your property - your stolen property. We'll see how much longer it lasts. Given the demographics there will be a Nationalist majority in less than 15 years - BBC just said less than 2 weeks ago it could be as early as 2023. Then it may or may not be your property after that depending on how things go. If Brexit goes sour people will be itching to leave. At any rate, there will be changes.

@@shanef8728 Bit like the IRA then with all their propaganda bullshit
The IRA were so squeaky clean weren't they,they never ever terrorised/ killed their own people did they
A terrorist literally means someone who uses violence (typically against civilians) to achieve a political goal via intimidation. In all three of those areas the PIRA checks out as a terrorist group, not to mention the number of civilians they killed was several times higher than the British army, even with collusion estimates

The British army at its best. Doing a thankless job surrounded by an invisible enemy who never dared to confront them one on one.
Miles Coleman - first of all the ira weren't a people's army, they were terrorists which most catholic men did not join with and secondly, the IRA surrendered their weapons and Northern Ireland remains British territory and now the republican cause is dead with only 20% of residents in Northern Ireland supporting a United Ireland even the majority of catholics want to remain British, LOL we well and truly smashed the IRA, god save the Queen!
If you want to know what happened when the IRA actually fought their opponents head on, look no further than the story of Corporal Eric Glass - one part time middle aged UDR soldier armed only with a pistol beat back four Provos with automatic assault rifles, killing one, whilst heavily injured from their gunfire.
it was never the objective of the British to defeat the IRA though, they only meant to suppress their violence to an acceptable level and allow a political solution to emerge. Mission accomplished. The IRA spoke of having forced a stalemate in their propaganda but they had taken their armed campaign as far as they could and they knew it.
By the mid-1990s the Provisional IRA was having every good operation in Belfast compromised by informers and the UVF's war of attrition against them in rural Ulster was grinding them down further. No wonder they sued for peace. It's 2017 and Northern Ireland remains British. More than a few blades of grass I'd say...

@@FormerVicePresidentDickVeiny bloody hell.you are made of some steel to get through that.tgxnks for the reply and cap off to you
Possible, as in the other reply that mentions the PK, which as it's bipod mounted would give you a stable firing platform. Fully automatic fire from a hand held rifle/carbine less accurate at such a range imo, more suppressive fire or "spray and pray."
Probably wasn't automatic fire that did the damage. I'm guessing it was old one shot paddy, followed by bursts of fire.

Most right minded people on the island of Ireland would much prefer to talk of peace and reconciliation instead of reading sectarian bullshit. I’d like to think that we can all agree with the fact that there were wrongs and atrocities inflicted and carried out by both sides of the divide. How can our children and future generations truly live in peace if we continue to live in the past?

Ya see if I'm not mistaken, this same regiment probably these same borstal boys helping to hold down the victims , were involved in what became known, the pitchfork murders of two guys , Michael Naan and Andrew Murray.
Sgt Stan Hathaway, Cpl Forrester Sgt Chestnut, Cpt Snowball,etc ,etc it went right up the ranks.
Person's unknown were of course said to have been responsible, with heavy inference on loyalists. Only when one of the regiment listened to the Wearside Jack , bogus Yorkshire ripper tape , he was convinced it sounded like Hathaway, undeniably a Psychopath ,who he'd been on tour with , he went to the cops in Glasgow , probably looking a reward and was physically thrown out of two separate stations.
Only for a Savvy journalist at a Glasgow newspaper it would , like so many hundreds of others, have ended at that.
It seems at the beginning of the tour the entire platoon were shown Naans photo and details and that he was to be treated, appropriately, having earlier been involved in the civil rights movement.
It went higher than Snowball of course but he was offered a non custodial, with pension in tact no doubt. If you look closely at these individuals you can tell the half of them are unhinged.
Officers all sound like Prince Charles clones.
Def jobs for the boys.
The Scottish pretty much pushed the Irish around. I’m English living in Northern Ireland. You can hear that droning Scottish/Irish accent. People in Donegal are much better people.
fuckup
@ Mathew Mathews. Exactly , the planters were for the best part a criminal class, cattle and sheep rustlers many of whom could not speak English in a way that someone in let’s say London would recognize they were viewed as undesirables and sending them to Ireland was seen as killing two birds with the one stone, removing a criminal class population and giving them a landlord status in return ,cooperation in subjugating the natives and if you study them I’m confident you will agree that evolution has passed them by.
fuck off back to england then
So you invite yourself to Northern Ireland....complain about all the people there...and are now thinking of inviting yourself to the republic. You are a wanker....a total wanker.

I was wondering how long it would take him to refer to the IRA as 'terrorists' in his best plummy accent!
Reminds of Russian media calling Ukrainians N*zis. Pompous evil invading scum is all they were, everyone involved from Broatiah government to media puppets
What sort of "journalism" is this?!
It isn't - whilst it's an AP film that's the voice of Douglas Cameron, a voice over artist used a lot in the 1970's as a training film v/o artist and TV continuity announcer for the BBC who also wrote and directed many of the training/promotional films he voiced too. More a promotional film than journalism
@@contactacb I live in a country that year on year bottomed in the free speech index, where journalists are severely prosecuted. The government media (just the régime's mouthpiece) do not even produce such reports.

Brave and amazing soldiers!
Hell bound tramps please god most of them have committed suicide when they were fucked to the kerb by the government that called them heroes until they were no longer up to the job and left with no income it amazes me how the thick as fuck Britain's can't see they are being used in the army by hateful politicians who would not even have a fist fight for their queen never mind a battle with bombs and guns going off everywhere and all the politicians have to say is your so brave your country thanks you 🤣🤣🤣. And the fucking stupid fools getting bullets shot at them think they are heroes then imagine joining the army at 19 and getting killed and throwing your 1 life away for the likes of borris Johnson and he sitting in his plush home eating lobster and caviar getting a bj off his clearly drugged missus and when he is finished go on twitter and say heroes 1 and all I've a poppy on my coat for you now off you go to be killed for me and my privileged colleagues its astounding how fucking needy and stupid these brave heroes really are 🤦♂️🤦♂️🤦♂️🤣🤣🤣
cowards killing civilians brits out
What a shame it was only 130...🖕
130 killed RA men? Versus 187 innocent men, women and children killed by british security personnel. Versus 1080 British security personnel killed by republicans. Was it worth it? 130 versus all of the other people that were killed?
@@arthurgoodness7865 yes

Why are Scottish troops always officered by English officers? Are colonial troops now ?
Look up how officers work in the army I’ve had plenty of Scottish officers it’s called the British army.
XMG should have been in the free state when the boundary commission was formed so this Should nt have happen
the surrender in Iraq was probably the most profound. when the British army arranged a meeting with the fighters in Mosul and said we will no longer patrol and will pull all our troops out if you agree to no longer attack us. that should have been the wake up call. British soldiers still say they were in Afghanistan. you weren't. you were in one small part called helmand. a joke to the local Taliban and constantly saved by american forces before once again surrendering. enjoy videos like this. this was your heyday. you know it and i know it
michelob81 and the Provo’s where on the verge of defeat when they signed the peace treaty. They where riddled with spies you know it and I know. You’re wrong it was basra not Mosul get your facts right, we defeated saddam. No you’re wrong the Americans never saved us in Basra it was the Iraqis who took over. We never surrendered in Afghanistan again wrong shut up you keyboard warrior coward . There have been mistakes in Iraq war thats nothing to do with British soldiers, it’s spineless politicians not giving enough resources or having the will for a fight. Learn the facts and truth before you shout your mouth off behind a keyboard spouting antibritish shit
Must be amazing being the worlds saviour ? Any one remember that small action called the Vietnam war ? how did that end again for you ? USA USA 😂😂 oh and by the way I served 12 years in 3 PARA and served with the American military a lot . So keep safe keyboard warrior 👌🏻

Ulster staying British was th best thing for Ireland. The British had turned it into a bankrupt welfare state. Ireland wouldn't of been able to support the population on its own.
Spoken like a true zionist.
Ireland has survived for Thousands of years, and under usurpation. We will survive longer than you would ever wish for.

Ulster and Northern Ireland are two different things you ignorant twat. 3 counties are in the Republic. So Ulster is NOT British.
3 counties of Ulster have never been part of NI but the part they have controlled is now basically a welfare state.
Whisper it, but the Irish economy is booming again, with unemployment expected to dip below 5.5pc this year and GDP forecast to grow by around 4pc. With the recovery come challenges. Housing remains a considerable problem the Government must tackle, while many experts have also warned of the risk of overheating. Brexit also looms large. Five prominent economists give their take on 2018. www.independent.ie/business/irish/the-economy-in-2018-the-expert-view-36456511.html
You can read here what 5 leading economists have to say. Or let me save you the bother by telling you the bottom line. You are full of shit. The Irish economy presently is outperforming the UK economy but that wouldn't be hard. Just wait for the consequences of the likely no deal Brexit to kick in and you learn what it is to live in a failed economy. Maybe you can do what you did in 1973 and go to the IMF for a bailout.
IMF says UK has a debt that is 87.02% of GDP while Ireland's is only 68.52% en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_countries_by_public_debt So the UK isn't exactly the land of milk and honey is it ?????????????
