    Hey hptmurphy,

    According to the map in that .pdf file, you need a geography lesson!

      why would you have a printed copy of that map
      Things fall apart; the centre cannot hold;
      Mere anarchy is loosed upon the world,
      The blood-dimmed tide is loosed, and everywhere***
      The ceremony of innocence is drowned;
      The best lack all conviction, while the worst
      Are full of passionate intensity.

          Theres a railway station nearby, and it's between Balbriggan and Drogheda. About 2 mins drive from the M1.

            The rumours about the Brugha going are building up big time. The government would make a fortune there, and it'd be cheaper to relocate to outside dublin...

              these rumours have been going around a long long time, I am in the Brugha 22 Years tommorow and when I went there as an extremely handsome and slim (both long gone) Pte I was told we would be relocating soon

              I actually think if they did sell and relocate to a green field site in or around Baldonnel it would make big time sense

                It would make sense to have just one barracks in Dublin. And a few training camps around Dublin and more in wicklow

                But all the money froim the sale could be used on a very important task.

                It is only by contemplation of the incompetent that we can appreciate the difficulties and accomplishments of the competent.

                    don't see it being sold in the near future
                    Ah i love innocence like that

                    Every Barracks and govt owened piece of land is for sale, it just depends on the size of the govts td;s majority for that area

                    Gormanston has been a really great training area for the e Bde but do you really think the FF Mandrins give 2 shites about military training.

                      As someone who goes back to the mid 60s and my first camp there, I totally agree, but do you really think that the Greens/ lab/FG will be more sympathetic if/when they come to power, I think not
                      it will be long, it will be hard, and there will be no withdrawl

                        Your absolutly right, no politican will give two shites abot military training, if theres a chance he/she may get a few extra votes

                        and thats life
