Ulster’s defenders, past and present, from Cuchulainn “Ancient defender of Ulster from Gael attacks”, via the 1893 UDU and WWI soldiers memorialised in the towers at Messines and Thiepval, to the modern UDA/UFF: “In memory of the officers and volunteers of A. Coy. UDA/UFF West Belfast Brigade who unselfishly dedicated their lives in defence of their country.”
There was also a Cuchulainn mural on Newtownards Road in 1992 (updated in 2005), as well as ‘past defenders’ in the form of B Specials and UDR (1992 | 2005).
Among the volunteers listed on the stone, 19 year old Alan Simpson was shot in his home in nearby Highfield Drive.

Tommy Herron, brigadier in East Belfast, heads the list of UDA volunteers on this Dee Street stone. Herron was kidnapped and killed in September 1973, perhaps by the UDA itself for Herron’s extortion and racketeering (Irish Times).
