#OnThisDay 1939 De Valera declares Ireland would be neutral during WW2, better known as ‘The Emergency’. Of course, Ireland was not neutral in the strictest sense but rather “neutral but on the Allies’ side”.

Listen here to John Dorney from The Irish Story and I talk about Ireland during the Second World War here: https://podcasts.apple.com/ie/podcast/irelands-neutrality-in-second-world-war-john-dorney/id1365677620?i=1000474907990

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.
