  • Sergeant John Haughey

    Sergeant John Haughey of 156 Battery, 94 Locating Regiment, Royal Regiment of Artillery
    21 January 1974. Londonderry.

    Sergeant Haughey was leading a foot patrol in the Bogside area of Londonderry. As he was approaching the junction of Lonemoor Road from Stanleys Walk, a bomb, which had been hidden behind a telephone junction box exploded. Sergeant Haughey died of his injuries.

    John Haughey was 32 years old, married with three children. Highly thought of by all who met him, he was in all respects, a gentleman.

    R.I.P. Gentleman John. Always Remembered Never Forgotten.

              Be who you are and say what you feel...
              Because those that matter, don't mind.
              And those that mind, don't matter!

                            I have sent a message of Remembrance to John's daughter Anita.
