Security Forces in Northern Ireland 1969–92
Osprey Publishing (Verlag)
978-1-85532-278-3 (ISBN)
The conflict in Northern Ireland was unlike any other campaign conducted by the British Army in the 20th century.
There were no set-piece battles, no decisive victories or crushing defeats; just a grinding, relentless series of small scale operations in response to riots, bombings, sectarian murders and terrorist ambushes.
Tim Ripley, a specialist in modern military affairs and research associate at Lancaster University's Centre for Defence and International Security Studies, profiles the operations, tactics, uniforms and equipment of the British and Irish Security Forces and the main terrorist groups involved in 'the Troubles' from 1969-92.
