With
thanks to Ross Robson for his collection of mags from 57 Bty's time in Ireland.Ross
writes; These magazines were created when we were at our (57Bty) base on Mulhouse
street on the Falls Road. The magazines mention,in a light hearted way, several
of the Battery's colorful personalities and were largely written by 'us rank
and file'. "Our time in Belfast was at times very exciting, but also full
of exhausting tedium,little sleep and too much violence".
