Joe McCann 1972 Original Vintage Poster by Jim FitzPatrick

A Historical Enquiries Team investigation into the killing of Joe McCann found it was unjustified. The report stated: “The HET considers that Joe’s actions did not amount to the level of specific threat which could have justified the soldiers opening fire in accordance with the Army Rules of Engagement or their standard operating procedures.” The report was welcomed by his wife and children.
Two British soldiers, currently known as Soldier A, aged 67, and Soldier C, 65, were arrested and were charged in December 2016 for his murder.
