Harnser Posted March 29, 2015 Report Share Posted March 29, 2015 That brings some sorrowful memories back . Also some great memories of some real friends working under extreme and dangerous conditions . Harnser Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sako751sg Posted March 30, 2015 Report Share Posted March 30, 2015 Havent really got many bad memories of the tours apart from a couple of fatalities but luckily the fellas i had with me were pretty switched on.Belfast is a pretty high octane tour but at least you have to be on the ball all of the time. Great to see different times over there and if we have a generation seeing the better side hopefully it will hold. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Harnser No, I was based outside Belfast but my work was in and around the place. A lot of it was up North while I was there (00-02) due to the rioting around the time of the Holy Cross disputes. Got all over the province while I was there though, I think I visited every single active security force base at one time or another and most of the PSNI stations.
