        I put up a picture and post in the Civil War thread last April showing Dev, Brugha and Mulcahy reviewing men of Michael Brennan's 1st Western Division in December 1921 - ironically the same troops who reclaimed Limerick for the Provisional Government in July 1922.... I presume this was part of the same visit ?

        The words that split a nation: "I... do solemnly swear true faith and allegiance to the Constitution of the Irish Free State as by law established, and that I will be faithful to His Majesty King George V, his heirs and successors by law in virtue of the common citizenship of Ireland with Great Britain and her adherence
        Everything is self-evident.

          Yep, would think so and I'd say Mulcahy is in there somewhere, under suspicion or not.

            Relatives queue at Jervis street hospital to identify the dead and to enquire about those injured after the Croke park murders by the British armed forces.

                        The raid on the Custom House. DeValera's monumental tactical failure due to the amount of IRA prisoners taken and therefore active service men taken off the streets.

                                Alcock and Brown's crashed Vickers Vimy near Clifden in June 1919 after completing the first successful transatlantic flight - whatever about the landing...
