The Force Research Unit (FRU) was responsible for arming, organising, and colluding with pro-British death squads in the north of Ireland. This sinister British Military unit was run by Lt Colonel Gordon Kerr (now Brigadier Gordon Kerr) which was based at Thiepval Barracks in Lisburn, County Antrim.
The British Government is very sensitive about FRU activities, and has obtained injunctions on several newspapers that have attempted to reveal details of its shadowy figures, and its operations. The FRU still operates in the north of Ireland, though it has since changed its name to the Joint Services Group.
