A rare photo of a military funeral in Grangegorman Military Cemetery Dublin. On a recent trip I think I found roughly where the photo was taken. Other than 1 missing headstone, pics match up well. There are also 2 trees in the picture which have now grown much larger.
Headstone of Andrew Gallway, St. Joseph Catholic Cemetery, Baton Rouge, today. From #Skibbereen, he was mortally wounded at Port Hudson in 1863. His brother Edward was the 2nd soldier (& 2nd Irishman) to die in the American Civil War, from wounds received at Fort Sumter in 1861.
Firsr ever visit to a battlefield of the Vicksburg Campaign today, at Raymond #Mississippi, fought on 12 May 1863. Aside from the Irish in the U.S. military present, the engagement also included the Confederate 10th Tennessee Irish -their Colonel Randal McGavock was KIA here.

Consolidated B24-M Liberator @IWMDuxford. Scheme of Robert Vickers, 578th Bombardment Sqdn, 392nd Bombardment Gp, 8th AF. Vickers apparently picked "Dugan" and the Irish shamrock despite having no Irish heritage- it was a nickname an Irish family friend gave to his father. #WW2
