And in a show of EU solidarity we are being protected by France because we can't be arsed being able to do it for ourselves. Let's not forget that RN warship as well

There is an excellent channel on YouTube that puts up videos of the battle walks from Gettysburg national park. Can easily lose a few hours watching them youtu.be/dy4_SfoFALw?...

I first saw it in south Lebanon in 95. Probably watched it and unhealthy amount of times since. Avoid the prequel tho, it's a mess. Would love to see the third film made but doubt it'll ever happen

Pondering if you should watch the theatrical cut of "Gettysburg", the extended cut, or the directors cut. The obvious answer is all 3

Met him once. He visited us in the glen before we were going to the Lebanon in 95. He had double hearing protection when the troops were going without. Then stood over soldiers being dragged through the courts for hearing loss when he knew the truth

Irish, so no dog in the fight. But in WW2 you did host all the governments in exile. Which is a step above flying some flage imho.

They'll need a huge lead over the closest left candidate cause the lack of transfers to FG will be a factor

Definitely. Just remember the film is based on a novel about the battle so is not wholly accurate

Fair play for covering Irish history. James Connolly, the rebel shot tied to a chair, was Scottish and I served in the barracks named after him. The Rolls Royce armoured car with Michael Collins on the day he died is still running and in service youtu.be/7y1zU3NM4OQ?...

A certain "Arthur Percival" was particularly hated in Ireland for his cruelty during the war. He was based in Cork too, surprised he wasn't mentioned.

Apology accepted if you beat France. In fairness at least your covering films like this and discussing them, now role on Michael Collins

Is there much awareness of this period in the UK? When I was in the Irish military we would have had interactions with the British army generally the war of independence was new to them.

Read up on how they were treated when they got back to Ireland, shameful. Even in the 90's when I was serving they were still labelled cowards. The truth was buried and ignored for years.
