#OnThisDay 1923 Michael Murphy & Joseph O’Rourke were executed for armed robbery of a bank in Galway. Both said the money was to pay off farm debts, but the authorities said they had political links to the IRA. These were the last executions of the Civil War.
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.
