... units, he acknowledges that they have been ambushing and murdering the IRA. What he refuses to acknowledge is the Protestant-state collaboration in such killing. While Urban simply omits James Millar and rejects without discussion the claims of Albert Baker, it is not possible to ignore Fred Holroyd. Having quoted endless off the record military and intelligence sources who support the state's 'line', Urban declined to talk to Holroyd, the only British Army officer to date from that 'war' willing to be interviewed on the record. Instead he quotes Martin Dillon ...

... the line which would not be officially conceded. Now the line appears to be yes, it happened in the late 1980s but not before. In a book which consists in large part of interviews with Loyalist 'terrorists', there is no reference by Taylor to Fred Holroyd, not only the sole British military intelligence officer from that war who has talked a length, but one who was working, liaising with the RUC, in the Portadown area, one of the hot spots. Taylor discusses the murder of the IRA man John ...

... review of the Kincora episode written by Wallace while still working for the British state. This document alone proves that all the subsequent official denials of a 'coverup' of the Kincora events are lies. The first of the pieces is by, and about, Captain Fred Holroyd. Like Wallace he was involved in, and became disgusted by some of the things that he witnessed in Northern Ireland, and has subsequently blown the whistle on them via articles in the New Statesman with Duncan Campbell and on Channel 4 TV. To some extent ...

Basing himself largely on the evidence of Captain Fred Holroyd, Doherty unravels a whole series of covert operations during 1974, made possible by the presence of a British informer in the Gardai. Codenamed 'the badger', this informer was recruited by the Special Military Intelligence Unit, MI6's connection with the RUC, and, ...
