Northern Ireland Stories

**dai29** · 12-04-2011, 07:54

The ex RGJ author Ken Wharton has started work on his fifth book about the role played by the ordinary serviceman/woman during the Northern Ireland conflict. Some of you may already have read his previous books and will know the content is pro British soldier. The theme for this new book will be focused mainly on the year 1973 and Ken is asking for "Soldiers' Stories" from any of you who served out there at that time. I know that the Royal Welsh Fusiliers were in Londonderry during this year so why not give Ken a chance to tell your story....warts and all. Ken can be contacted on ken_wharton@hotmail.com
