a very beautiful version of the song by the Pogues ( RIP Shane) to show their respect.

Remarkable and yet respectful as there is a dualistic issue:

quite some Irish joined the British army in WWI as volunteers, but also quite some were "shipped" to down under (The Fields of Athenry) and even some British became a little later the Dúchrónaigh, AKA Black and Tans.


Nevertheless as said, a nice version with some nice pics
