1:19:00
Something had to be done
to reinforce law and order.
1:19:02
But why was it considered
necessary to use, uh
1:19:04
Iive ammunition
instead of rubber bullets?
1:19:05
Who made that decision?
1:19:06
I'm sorry, but the aggression
was brought to us.
1:19:08
It was quite clear that our men
were attacked on the barriers
1:19:11
by the hooligans who got
out of control in the parade...
1:19:13
And yet no soldiers were hit.
1:19:14
...throwing bricks and stones.
1:19:15
Sir, was there a need
to kill innocent civilians?
1:19:17
My understanding is
absolutely clear
1:19:18
that the Paras were fired on
and returned fire.
1:19:20
-Were any...?
-Both high-velocity
1:19:22
and low-velocity bullets
were used.
1:19:24
Were-Were-Were any soldiers hit?
1:19:25
-Uh, not to my knowledge.
-Not to your knowledge.
1:19:27
When can we have a statement by?
1:19:28
We will give you a statement
as soon as we can.
1:19:30
Colonel Tugwell.
1:19:40
Uh, Five Niner, Roger.
1:19:41
That's it, Sergeant Major.
1:19:42
They're pulling us
out of the Bogside.
1:19:44
Simon!
1:19:45
Guys, they're pulling us out.
Lead on.
1:19:48
Move out!
1:20:05
There seemed to be
a very large number
1:20:07
of casualties today,
Colonel Wilford.
1:20:09
You must understand that, uh
1:20:10
we've only just finished
this operation.
1:20:13
We do not know exactly, uh,
what happened, at this stage
1:20:16
but there are certainly
three people killed.
1:20:19
Don't you think
you might have used
1:20:21
excessive force today?
1:20:22
Well, what is force
in a situation like this?
1:20:25
If they fire on us,
we're gonna fire back
1:20:27
and they know that
perfectly well.
1:20:29
But you think
the operation was justified?
1:20:31
Of course.
1:20:32
Do you have no regrets at all
about the operation today?
1:20:35
Absolutely none.
1:20:36
-None whatsoever?
-None whatsoever.
1:20:40
-Please...
-He's all right.
1:20:40
-...tell them I'm sorry.
-We're bringing him out now.
1:20:42
They've done that. Get him out.
1:20:44
We're going now.
1:20:45
Going out, you know.
1:20:46
Go, go, go, go,
get the fuck out of here.
1:20:49
Come on, get him in.
1:20:50
Come on, lads.
1:20:52
Come on! Get him in.
1:20:53
All right, come on, lads.
1:20:54
Hang on, hang on,
you're all right, hang on.
1:20:57
-Gentlemen.
-Steady, steady.
1:20:58
-Gerry?
-You're all right.
1:20:59
Go, go, go.
