#OnThisDay 1940 The Irish vessel ST Leukos was sank by German submarine U-38 off Tory Island to the north of Donegal. Mystery surrounded its sinking for decades but it is believed that the St Leukos tried to ram the sub to prevent it firing on other ships. #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.
