#OnThisDay 1923 Commandant-General Denis Galvin died from wounds suffered a few days earlier when he had been testing new grenades when one detonated as soon as the pin was pulled, almost fully removing his right hand & puncturing his chest. His obituary mentioned that he was ‘out in 1916″.

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.
