The Red Hand Commando (RHC) is a small loyalist paramilitary group in Northern Ireland, which is closely linked to the Ulster Volunteer Force (UVF). It is named after the Red Hand of Ulster.
Famous quotes containing the words red and/or hand:
“Revolution? Unscrew the flag-staff, wrap the bunting in the oil covers, and put the thing in the clothes-chest. Let the old lady bring you your house-slippers and untie your fiery red necktie. You always make revolutions with your mugs, your republic—nothing but an industrial accident.”
—Alfred Döblin (1878–1957)
“No hand will strike a smiling face.”
—Chinese proverb.
