Dear Forum Members,
28 Years Ago this weekend saw the start of the Battle of At Tiri.
In the battle one Irish soldier, + Private S. Griffen +,
and 1 Fijian soldier + Private S. Sonanavaluwere +
to loose their lives.
Shortly after this an Irish re-supply convoy to the Irish positions in the "Enclave" was
hijacked, the Irish troops disarmed and made captive,
two of the Irish being subsequently murdered in Cold-Blood:
Privates: +Tom Barrett and Derek Smallhorne. +
May they Rest In Peace.
Comrades Gone To Their Eternal Reward And Not Forgotten.
