EP43: Oíche Chiúin Dec 26, 2020

Show notes

In another lifetime, one of gore and blood, men were thrust into the chaos of war.They decision to go, for some was not one made through own agency or with true visions ofwar.Death, destruction, gore and suffering were not the messages on the flyers distributed tothe young men of the world.Instead, glory, glory, glorious glory was the theme of those in politics looking to fulfil theirown sadistic egos which disregarded death as just another tax the name on the street mustpay.With no real images of war available to be streamed into homes as can be done today, therealities of war were not a reality one ordinary people were accustomed to.Visions of foreign lands were shared with the young and war would be their avenue toexplore the planet which remained alien for them.If you lived in this time, what might your life have looked like?What would your Christmas look like?It is the story of a man from Greystones, Wicklow which answers these questions for us.This is his story.This episodes music was written, preformed and produced by Ryhan O’HalloranThe story was researched and scripted by Oran.If you want to help support this podcast, you can do so by buying us a coffee atwww.buymeacofee.com/wetheirish or leave us a review on your podcast app.We the Irish is an Ireland loves production See acast.com/privacy for privacy and opt-out information.
