  • An instructor with the Royal Gurkha Rifles points a recruit towards an objective while on tactical training manoeuvres on heathland above Farnborough, on 5th August 1996, in Farnborough, England. Nepali-born boys belong to an elite Regiment of the British army. Every year 60,000 boys attend recruiting sessions in villages and towns in the Himalayan Kingdom but only 150 are selected each year to serve on active duty across the world. They fly to the UK for basic soldier training where they learn the skills required for infantry, transport, communications or clerical duties. Their reputation as a fierce but intensely loyal fighting force and many Victoria Crosses were won for bravery during World War 2. Here they are seen cradling modern SA-80 rifles while dressed in camouflaged helmets with oak leaves.

  • As the Statten Island ferry nears the business district and skyscrapers of Manhattan Island, a New York City Police Department (NYPD) police officer stands guard at the very front (the bow) of the boat. It is approximately ten days after the 9/11 attacks and with pistol safely holstered and arms folded, he can see the settling dust from Ground Zero beyond the safety chain, where the Twin Towers once stood. It is a bright day and behind the policeman, commuters are already returning to work because normality is a priority for those affected by disruption and fear.

  • An officer from the Atlanta Police Department puts his boot on a man's chest who is lying still in the gutter on the street. He and another person have been fighting in the downtown area and the officer has arrived in his patrol car after reports that a street brawl needed his interception. The officer's belt with a gun secured in its holster  can be seen from a low ground level angle. It is a desolate and sinister place and the lights from a passing car and the green fluorescent glow from a parking lot (car park) is in the background. The police officer needs to calm the violent situation, pacifying the two men before the matter gets out of hand and preventing him from causing more trouble, he places his weight on the thorax to pin the male on the ground.

  • On a brick wall is a painted red hand that grips an Armalite automatic weapon which has been painted on to a street wall of a house off the protestant Shankhill Road in Belfast, Northern Ireland. The red hand is actually better-known as The Red Hand Defenders (RHD),  a Northern Irish paramilitary group formed in 1998 and composed largely of Protestant hardliners from loyalist groups observing a cease-fire. It is composed of members of the Ulster Defence Association (largely those who once belonged to the now disbanded 2nd Battalion, C Company) and Loyalist Volunteer Force, most of whom are still part of the latter organisation.
