It was fuck all to do with the Paras. I was there with A Sqn, 5th Royal Inniskilling Dragoon Guards. 1 casualty, Tpr Dennis Edwards who sustained superficial wounds of which he made a complete recovery. So you can "big up" your failed attack by claiming that it was in some way a victory over the Para's, it wasn't and good old Bobby Sands won slimmer of the year anyway.

This attack was carried out on Sat 9 May 1981 @ 23:00 hrs approx. 10 mortars in all,1 uxb 2 direct hits one on the canteen & shithouse the other hit a caravan in the car park. The other 7 missed their target landing in the surrounding fields and Tommy Smyth's pig farm. The little present was for the 5th Skins who were there at that time... not Para.

I wonder if this was an attack from Monaghan (county) IRA or Monaghan (James aka mortar monaghan)

@NielsShoe it has nothing to do with religion. sure the inla were made up of a load of protestants.

You're a thick. The Irish turned on the British when they started massacaring people in Ballymurphy and beyond.
-
@NielsShoe well loyalists are hardly going to hide guns for the ira are they!!

irish religion nutters started all this killing remember that british army went in to stop the two factions killing each other but the catholics turned on the brits when the brits started searching cathlic homes for weapons.
