#OnThisDay 1917 Fr. Willie Doyle from Dublin was killed at Passchendaele having run “all day hither and thither over the battlefield like an angel of mercy”. He was chaplain to the 16th Irish Division but was loved by men of all faiths.

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.
