War
and Peace in Moidart
This
section deals with modern warfare, but not with Prince Charlie's
progressions.
The First World War affected Moidart as it did the rest of Europe
- many men went away and often did not come back.
The Second World War saw many folk cleared from Moidart to make
way for a Special Forces Training Unit based at Inverailort Castle,
Roshven House, Dorlin House and Arisaig House. The military
was much in evidence in various guises, all over the area.
Since the Second World War the military are still very active
around Moidart, usually seen flying over at high speed or dealing
with munitions left over from the war.
