Official IRA

I'm pretty sure it wa the Official IRA, not the provos, who did this one. Jdorney 15:16, 21 April 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Indeed it was. I'm not sure that the details at the end about Provo attacks really belong here, either. Palmiro | Talk 10:48, 22 April 2006 (UTC)[reply]

where are the names of those killed? —Preceding unsigned comment added by 131.227.76.238 (talk) 16:27, 1 October 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Article title

I propose we remove the "1972" from the title and de-capitalize "Bombing". As far as I'm aware, the barracks was bombed only once, thus making the date unnecessary. Thoughts? ~Asarlaí 15:23, 14 July 2009 (UTC)[reply]
