    BRADLEY SPEAKS OUT FOR THE FIRST TIME – WITHOUT PERMISSION FROM THE IRA

    The IRA was Gerry Bradley’s life. His sole interest was in ‘ops’ – carrying out on-the-ground war. Inspired, initially, to defend his home place against Loyalist threats, he became one of the most senior operators in Belfast IRA. When things turned political, there seemed to be no place for his kind of activism.

      Really interesting look at the whole period, Bradley was there from the start almost to the end. It seems like he had just about every experience possible, and anyone with an interest in the troubles will likely find it interesting.
