Motion Text
That this House thanks the helicopter pilots who operated during the Troubles in Northern Ireland; recognises their courage and dedication to the job of providing support and back up for soldiers on the ground at the coal face of acts of terrorism against them; and further acknowledges the vital role they played in seeing the defeat of the IRA's war of terror against civilians and the British Forces alike.
