The Royal Dublin Fusiliers at Gallipoli

category dublin | history and heritage | opinion/analysis author Wednesday November 02, 2005 14:22author by pat c Report this post to the editors

Wear A Peace Poppy

Some do not want to remember those who died during WW1 while fighting in the British Army. But it should be remembered that many of them were economic conscripts and many others were duped into joining the BA by John Redmond.

Remember all of those who fell, be they Irish, Scottish, Welsh, English, Turkish, French, German Austrians, Russians or Anzacs.

Wear a Peace Poppy.
