These soldiers were doing their duty and in the heat of the tense situation felt threatened to an extent where they may have wrongly fired . We put inadequately trained soldiers in a situation they were not prepared for They must not face trial for doing their duty

My son spent 6 months away and he deserves a proper homecoming on these streets. Shame on anyone trying to stop this.

Disgraceful. Our boys deserve a proper parade through the city they risked everything for. Sort it out.

ABSOLUTELY RIDICULOUS that they cant march in their own home city. Stand up for the troops!

Belfast needs to show some respect for the men and women who served. Stop playing politics with the people who defend us.
