The Provisional IRA launched a major assault on the Derryard Permanent Vehicle Checkpoint near the Fermanagh-Monaghan border, which was manned by two teams from Support Company, 1 KOSB. [2][3] Previously, the battalion had been resident in Dublin, where it played in the Leinster Senior League.[4]. [2] From this disastrous encounter with Dundees Jacobite rebels, only two regiments emerged with honour, one of them Levens, as it was then called, after its colonel. As a result it was taken on to the permanent strength of the army. The Regiments most active postings of the Victorian era however, were to Afghanistan and Burma. [2], The regiment was not fundamentally affected by the Cardwell Reforms of the 1870s, which gave it a depot at Fulford Barracks in York from 1873, or by the Childers reforms of 1881 as it already possessed two battalions, there was no need for it to amalgamate with another regiment. In the event, they found themselves in the Low Countries in the autumn of 1944, making assault landings on Walcheren Island, at the mouth of the River Scheldt. After a period of training in Saudi Arabia they moved into battle positions on the 23 rd February, crossing into Iraq on the 26 th and into Kuwait at the beginning of March. In the following year the Battalion was in Borneo, patrolling the Malaysia-Indonesia border.
