Young Citizen Volunteers (1972)
The Young Citizen Volunteers (YCV) is a Northern Irish loyalist group which is the youth movement attached to the paramilitary Ulster Volunteer Force (UVF). It takes its name from an earlier YCV that was associated with the original Ulster Volunteers, although there is no direct continuity between the two. Both groups share the same emblem of a shamrock surmounted by a Red Hand of Ulster.〔Adrian Forty, Susanne Küchle, ''The Art of Forgetting'', Berg 2001, p. 181〕
==Establishment==
The modern UVF was established in Belfast's Shankill Road area by Gusty Spence and others in 1966. The new group quickly undertook a sectarian campaign of arson and murder.〔Martin Dillon, ''The Shankill butchers: the real story of cold-blooded mass murder''. Routledge, 1999. pp 20–23〕 During the early 1970s a group of loyalist youths who supported Linfield F.C. congregated on the Shankill Road and were regularly involved in acts of vandalism against the nationalist Unity Flats area on their way to and from football matches. One of their number was Billy Hutchinson who was close to the UVF and who organised these youths into a new UVF youth group, resurrecting the old YCV name in the process.〔Peter Taylor, ''Loyalists'', Bloomsbury, 2000, pp. 81-82〕 Along with Billy Spence, Hutchinson oversaw a recruitment drive for the new group, which expanded quickly in its first few years of existence.〔Roy Garland, ''Gusty Spence'', Blackstaff Press, 2001, p. 52〕 The reformation of the YCV had been organised by Gusty Spence following his escape from prison, which dates the event to 1972.〔Garland, ''Gusty Spence'', p. 147〕
