| Searching through our Family photo's I have come upon a photo of my Dad and written on the reverse is something to do with being on guard at Cloona House. Weapon and uniform seem to suggest it was taken in the 50's/60's.
Can anyone shed a light on this for me? | |

| Cloona house was the residence of the GOC in Ulster. I have done guard on it in the 70s | |

| Emma 2, thank you for the reply. At least now I can put context to the photo of my Dad, instead of him doing an "early" selfie. Ha Ha. | |
