Sir Jeffrey Donaldson targeting third DUP seat in Lagan Valley

Twenty-four policemen dragged along what usually carried them, a Land-Rover, and all for the sake of charity in January 1982. They pulled the vehicle seven and half miles from Bangor to Donaghadee and raised £535 for the Share project, a holiday establishment for disabled people and their relatives in Co Fermanagh. The men were from number five Divisional Mobile Support Unit, based in Belfast. Chief Inspector Robert Catterson, deputy commander of the DMSU in the city, supervised the operation.
