Belfast Patrol by David Rowlands. \u003cp\u003e45 Commando Royal Marines performed the role of the Belfast Roulement Battalion from 2nd July to 10th November 1986.  This painting depicts a foot patrol setting out from Springfield Road RUC Station.  The RUC Station at Springfield Road was 45 Commando's Tactical HQ.  With its fortress-like protective fencing it stood cheek-by-jowl among little terraced houses.  Marines escorted the constables of the Royal Ulster Constabulary (RUC) on their beat, both on foot and in Land Rovers.  A sign warned: Do Not Stand Around In This Yard.  Holes made by bullets and shrapnel from bombs tossed over the fence explained the reason why.  In the painting I have tried to make the gate a symbolic focal point, as the men's thoughts are focussed upon what lies outside for this patrol.\u003cb\u003e\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eLimited edition of 50 artist proofs. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e Image size 17 inches x 13 inches (43cm x 31cm)\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Military Aviation Art Prints","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":54135166206285,"sku":null,"price":90.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0810\/5449\/9149\/files\/2026NEWdhm0620.jpg?v=1781871089","url":"https:\/\/militaryaviationartprints.com\/products\/belfast-patrol-by-david-rowlands-ap","provider":"Military Aviation Art Prints","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
