Operation Banner was the British army's longest ever deployment. It ran from 1969 to 2007. But now the army's service in Northern Ireland has been forgotten by many.
Author Jonathan Trigg served as an infantry officer during "the troubles" and joins me on the show today to explain more about the conflict, how the army performed, how the IRA was organised and how the Special Forces were utilised. It's fascinating stuff.
His latest book is called Death in the Fields and can be purchased via this link on Amazon - https://amzn.to/3BCG0fi
Jonathan also has hiw own website here - https://jonathantrigg.co.uk/
