The Troubles: The Secret War - 50 Years On

“The Troubles: The Secret War - 50 Years On” was a presentation given by Brigadier (British Army Retired) Roderick Macdonald MBE at Marines' Memorial Club on December 7th, 2021.

Brigadier Macdonald served two tours in Northern Ireland during “The Troubles.” With information obtained from covert sources and his own experiences, Brigadier Macdonald will describe an internecine campaign surrounded in secrecy and myth. Brigadier Macdonald will tell the story of how politicians and British security services in the 1970s initially blundered, but eventually came up with a methodology to neutralize the IRA leading to the “Good Friday Accord” between the British and Irish Governments brokered by the US.
