Christopher Patrick Brady was born on 13 June 1952 and attested for the Gloucestershire Regiment, serving with the 1st Battalion in Northern Ireland. He was killed by an I.R.A. bomb on 17 July 1973. On this date eight members of the Regiment were on patrol in the Divis Flats, West Belfast. One the top floor the soldiers were inspecting an electricity box- upon opening it a cardboard box was spotted with black tape and two wires coming from it. Almost immediately the 20lb explosion was initiated, and four of the soldiers were injured, two fatally, including Brady. The bomb had been linked by cable to a battery on the ground floor, and was detonated by two youths.

Brady was one of five members of the Gloucestershire Regiment who was killed on active service in Northern Ireland. He is buried in Efford Cemetery, Plymouth.
