EDITORS COMMENTS
In this evocative photograph from July 1972, a senior Non-Commissioned Officer (NCO) of The Royal Welsh Regiment delivers a briefing to his patrol before they set out from their base at Ardoyne bus depot in Northern Ireland. The image captures a moment of intense focus and preparation as the soldiers, dressed in combat fatigues and armed with rifles, listen intently to their leader's instructions. The patrol stands in front of their one-ton Humber, a military vehicle commonly referred to as a "pig," which would have transported them to their mission. The gritty realities of military life in Northern Ireland during the 1970s are palpable in the image, with the worn-down bus depot serving as a stark backdrop to the scene. The photograph is one of nine prints in a collection documenting Army operations in Northern Ireland during this tumultuous period. The image is an official record of the military presence in the region and offers a glimpse into the daily lives of soldiers tasked with maintaining order and security during a time of political unrest and conflict. The photograph's historical significance lies in its depiction of the crucial role that NCOs played in leading their troops during this period. The NCO's calm and authoritative demeanor underscores the importance of effective communication and leadership in the face of adversity. Overall, this photograph is a poignant reminder of the sacrifices made by the military personnel who served in Northern Ireland during the 1970s and the vital role they played in maintaining peace and order during a time of political and social upheaval.
