Where did the 'free' state get the guns to kill their own during the civil war?From the Brits in Dublin Castle.

The newly formed 'free' state army asked the Brits for their Canons and Lee Enfields to attack the Four Courts .

They then proceeded to adopt the Sam Brown Belt and uniform to continue the occupation through the legal system known as the BAR which stems from London.

Talk about a screwed up psyche.

"He also saw action in the civil war on the republican side.he is one of two limerick men murdered by the free state forces during the civil war"

I see.

Its "Murder" when the other side do the killing.

Its "Heroic Action" when your own side do the killing.

That whining self pity goes through republicanism to this very day.

on behalf of my nana and myself i would just like to thank everyone involved and my nana was extremely happy with the efforts to restore the grave and the outcome, sadly my nana Margerat Wallace has passed on but i know she is even happier now that she is in reunited with the loved ones that she lost while she was here, thanks again.
