#OnThisDay 1920 Capt. Percival Lea-Wilson RIC District Inspector was assassinated by Michael Collins’ Squad in Gorey, Wexford. Some say Wilson was shot because he was the officer who strip searched Tom Clarke after the Rebel surrender after Easter 1916. #Ireland #History

Hi,
I'm David, I'm from Ireland. I am an avid fan of history. I have my B.A. in History, my M.A. in Military History and Strategic Studies,a Post Qualification Diploma in History and I've been teaching History for five years now.
I wanted to create a podcast that examines, in great detail, major Irish battles and battles allover the world in various wars that Irish people played a significant part in.
Hope you enjoy.
