#OnThisDay 1915 John Caffrey, born in Birr, Offaly was helping a wounded man with a medic in no man’s land. The medic was shot & Caffrey took him back to friendly lines before going back out to get the first wounded man. He was awarded the Victoria Cross.
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.
