The story

Gary Hook, a new recruit to the British Army, is sent to Belfast in 1971 during the early years of the Troubles.

As the crowd's protest escalates, the soldiers and police pull out, leaving the two soldiers behind.

A foul-mouthed Protestant youngster takes Hook to a local pub that serves as a front for Loyalists.
