We're dottin' the 't's' and a-crossin' the 'i's' or whatever on a 15-part post that we're getting ready for Wednesday, 28th February 2024, with one piece highlighting how the newly-minted (!)

From the 1900's - this young man, an RAF pilot, was 'flying high' over Dublin, nearing his destination, when his aircraft developed a problem and he was forced to crash land. He wasn't killed in the crash, but...
1920's in Ireland - these armed British Army soldiers didn't sign up to open, close, adjust and repair 'giant taps' or to maintain crops in the Irish countryside, and probably never seen themselves as union scabs either, but that's what they became...
In 1921, this RIC man, from England, 'made a name for himself' in one particular engagement with the IRA in Cork, and liked to 'trade' on it until, while out with his colleagues one day, his 'credit' ran out...
So don't forget us on Wednesday, 28th February 2024 - see y'all back here then!
Thanks for the visit, and for reading.
Sharon and the team.
