Great, but also Pyrrhic. Among many things I missed (and regret) on my trip to Ireland were a visit to Brian's tomb and venerating Plunkett's head in Drogheda.

That reminds me. I am likely going shortly and should make a video or two.
The question is, what sites should I visit.

This is likely the best and profession production dealing with The Battle of The Boyne

Interesting take from a Scot on the Colonisation of Ireland

Scots were foot soldiers in England's first act of empire: Ireland's colonisation

In 1603 James, the new Scottish king on England’s throne, began the ‘Ulster Plantation’, colonising what’s now Northern Ireland with thousands of Scots. It changed Irish and Scottish history forever. Acclaimed historian Dr John Young tells all to our Writer at Large

Can you find out the sites of the Harrington and Richardson gun factory set up in 1871? Worchester Mass.

Also my first gun was a Winchester and made at Chicopee Falls , can you check it out?

 

[Declan]

No. Worcester is a shit hole

Val and Earl used a Winchester to good effect against the Grapoids.

They also used another piece of equipment you'd be familiar with - a Caterpillar Dozer - to evacuate the townspeople.

Its time the true men of today play as brave a part


The dust on some is Irish earth among their own they rest
And the same dear land that gave them birth has cut them to her breast
And we will pray that from their clay whole many a race may start
Of true men like you men to act as brave a part

They rose in dark and evil days to right their native land
And they kindled here a living blaze that nothing shall withstand
Alas that might can vanquish right they fell and passed away
But true men like you men are plenty here today
