The British army never fully left Northern Ireland. It ceased its military operations there on the 1st of August, 2007 when they handed over responsibility for the security of the jurisdiction to the civilian police force, the PNSI. There are still troops in Northern Ireland as it is officially part of the United Kingdom, just as there are troops in Wales, Scotland and England, but they no longer patrol the streets or man check-points and watch-towers.
