Private M (Bloody Sunday)

Private M was a soldier in the Composite Platoon of Support Company, 1 Battalion, the Parachute Regiment on Bloody Sunday.

The Saville Report concluded:

We are sure that either Private L or Private M, members of Composite Platoon who had taken up positions at the low walls of the Kells Walk ramp, shot Kevin McElhinney as he was crawling south from the rubble barricade away from the soldiers. Both probably fired at him on the orders of one or perhaps two nearby non-commissioned officers, Colour Sergeant 002 and Corporal 039.
