My dad was stationed near the border in So. Armagh in the late 60's when all hell broke loose. Officers were being killed and the border was especially bad. My mother talked him into leaving cause she didn't want to see him killed. I think it tore him apart that he didn't get to serve his country as he had wanted, but my mother's persuasion probably saved his life. These are very brave men. I will be forever grateful for the sacrifices they have made.

Nothing fills me with more pride than to see the GC beside the RUC badge, and the men standing with their heads held high while stepping to the line. Many tried to break them, but united they stood, with honor and pride, they faced death smiled back for the freedom and well being of thousands. Honor the Fallen, but Remember the sacrifice made by every man and woman who had the courage to don the HARP AND CROWN

@Karateka73 The RUC were all legends, Every man & woman, History. They served thier country well & with honour that some people do not understand!

Never has an organisation given so much and got so little in return.

THANK U FOR POSTING THIS, IS A GREAT TRIBUTE TO A GREAT FORCE, THE ROYAL ULSTER CONSTABULARY WILL NEVER BE FORGOTTEN.

Yes, its a disgrace, justice and democracy has been killed in the UK with the disbandment of the RUC. Good video, long live the memory of the RUC.

Thank you so much for this video. Am proud to say I served in the ranks of the RUC. We held the line - Bloodied but unbowed. Rest in Peace my brothers and sisters.

So proud to have my Father as a Current PSNI officer 28 year serving, as he joined the RUC in 7 Nov. 1983, and my uncle 30 year serving RUC officer joined 8th june 1971. and Mother atm who is a PSNI officer. God bless the RUC and the amazing Police officers in it, no matter what critisism you face you were the best Police force in the World.

God bless. Their efforts weren't in vein. Proud to be from a country with such great heroes standing for it's people

We must never be allowed to forget the sacrifices that these brave men and women made,that we may live in peace!

2.22 everytime I see this in the museam its quite emotional. Reminds me to how close I was to losing my father

NO SURRENDER TO THE IRA!!!

Thank s to those who allow me to be myself and walk in the street today..; I honestly believe that every mile in my country has been paid for by those killed by terrorists seeking to force me from my home through ethnic cleansing.. I would support the same being done to nationalists for a similar period of time..
