I don't think that there was a PIRA brigade in north Antrim. There was a company or active service unit there, but probably not a battallion and certainly not a brigade. I think that this article should be renamed and possibly merged with another article.

Ok, but it seems like a form of words to me. The term Brigade had/has a specific meaning in the IRA's hierarchy. Was there one in N Antrim? Jdorney 22:48, 13 May 2007 (UTC)Reply

I'm really not sure, but republican sources say there was as does The Guardian. One Night In Hackney303 22:57, 13 May 2007 (UTC)Reply

Ok then. But it seems to have been very inactive for a brigade area, which would normally indicate at least 100 PIRA activists. Jdorney 23:30, 13 May 2007 (UTC)Reply

I realise that, don't think this article is going to be anything like the others we currently have. One Night In Hackney303 23:32, 13 May 2007 (UTC)Reply
