House clearing Nothern Ireland info


Told to me by a mate who served in Northern Ireland.

An Army patrol was tasked with checking out a derelict house near the border with the south.

A soldier climbed to the attic and fell through the floor to the room below, fell through that floor right down to the ground floor.

The corporal in charge of the patrol wrote in his report

Private Jones entered the attic and checked it was clear at 09:00 and 10 seconds
Private Jones entered the first floor and checked it was clear at 09:00 and 10.5 seconds
Private Jones entered the ground floor and checked it was clear at 09:00 and 11 seconds

House cleared at 09:00 and 12 seconds

Not liking me will always be your problem. Never mine.

Would have loved to have seen the sergeant's and lieutenant's faces when they read that.

Hope the private was uninjured!

Gotta love the ingenuity of the junior NCO corps.


Gunner. Sabot. Sniper. Is not an appropriate use of ammunition.
