17/3

St. Patrick's Day

Original Title: Shortall's Company, Royal Irish Artillery
Present Title: 24 (Irish) Battery, Royal Artillery
Status: 14 Regt
Date: 1 July 1794
Website: http://www.army.mod.uk/artillery/regiments/24669.aspx
In 1755, a Royal Artillery (RA) detachment of one officer and 49 men was sent to Dublin to form a nucleus of the Royal Irish Artillery. A year later the Unit was officially formed and became known as the “Company of Artillery in Ireland”. The Battery was originally known as Pritchard’s Company, it took various names, 4th company, 1st battery, A battery and then from time spent in India in the Punjab through the second world war it was 9th Royal Battery. In October 1926 the Battery was awarded the honour title (Irish) and it took its full name of 9th (Irish) Field Battery Royal Artillery. The Battery did not stop at that however but continued to match their achievements of the past in the Second World War.

Sgt Terry Bryan

Sgt Terry Bryan

Year: 2005
Rank/Regt: Operation TELIC – Basra Consolidation - Iraq. Award of CGC – Sgt Terry Bryan – E Battery RHA. Sgt Terry Bryan was commanding a two Land Rover mobile patrol travelling along a dual carriageway near Basra with the aim of releasing another ambushed mobile patrol when it was also ambushed. Sgt Terry Bryan’s patrol managed to drive out of the initial ambush successfully but then their Land Rovers were immobilised by roadside bombs; as the patrol bailed out, once again, it came under heavy, sustained, small arms fire from a nearby, allegedly ‘friendly’, IDF base. The now dismounted patrol was immediately threatened by a hundred plus strong mob but kept them at bay as a fierce fire-fight developed while the Gunners took up a defensive position in a nearby house. Under Sgt Terry Bryan’s inspired leadership, his nine-man patrol managed to keep threinforced mob out of the house despite a series of fire-bombs and mob assaults. Just as the patrol was running out of ammunition, it was rescued by back-up Warrior APCs. This is thought to be the first award of a CGC to a Gunner.
