OUR OWN RED BLOOD

"None considered himself HERO, but all were HEROES. There were fewer than 900 of them and they challenged an empire. There were ordinary men and their military training was minimal.
In that lies their Glory. They believed that Ireland should be free. In that lies their greatness."
