4(V) R IRISH, commanded by Lt Col T C P Brooke IRISH GUARDS, attended Annual Camp by participating in Ex LIONHEART (UK element of NATO Exercise REFORGER), in BAOR for two weeks in August 1984.
'I turned over one poor chap on a rocky, bloody crag on Tanngoucha. He was facing the right way, the last round of a clip in the breech and three dead Germans in front of him. His name was Duff. After all is over - and the remainder of the Empire is understandably irritated with Ireland - I hope these countless Duffs, from both the North and the South, and in all three services, will be remembered.
(Brigadier Nelson Russell, Commander 38 (Irish) Brigade, 1942-44)
