I grew up in a mostly republican area of Belfast and I remember as a child an army man positioned like this on our street corner. We were playing in the street and he called us over and let us look through his gun sight. It will always stick with me. Luckily I was raised without hatred, as was the army guy I’m guessing. I was scared shitless, although thinking back now as a grown man, the army fella was probably a scared shitless kid himself.
