I was wondering if anyone is aware of the existence of a roll of honour for the members of the National Army/Irish Army who died in service during the Irish Civil War? Or whether there are any memorials anywhere to men who died fighting for the Free State anywhere in Ireland.
Many thanks in advance.
It seems to have been and still is policy to ignore Free State casualties. I recently posted a picture of a memorial near Rosegreen, Co. Tipperary which commemorates two dead Irregulars and ignores a Free State Soldier who died in the same action.
I think there is two rolls of honours next to Michael Collins's grave in Glasnevin Cemetery
one for those who died in the army and one for those who died while on service with the UN.
