    The timeline mentioned - 1960 to 1969 - is wrong. British troops weren't deployed in NI until 1969.

      Yea. Dog is now Doggo and it wasn't the kneecapping. The locals were expert masters of that particular art - even the proverbial dogs on Etna Drive/ Brompton Park.

      Agreed. So casual walking into the mill ( Flax street) one guy takes his mag off while still outside unbelievably, we were there in 76 and we moved far quicker than that.
