The visit of General Dwight D. Eisenhower to Enniskillen, County Fermanagh
This is my dad thank you for all the support I’m on his ipad
From Ireland you should have said, just a fact
i have been there with team very heavy dark spooky place so haunted there
For God and Ulster
He was a patriot to his country.
This story takes me back to my childhood in Fermanagh.
33
Absolute legend of a man. Thanks for uploading
My 3x grandfather survived the charge at Waterloo.
Poltergeist activity usually feeds off the energy of a teenager ,this would explain the the haunting phenomena following the family across to America. .
My God.. For God and Ulster...
My great uncle with the 11th RIR survived that day at the Somme, and my gran related how he told her that he and others lifted the wounded Capt Craig, who was apparently a big man, into a small hand truck. They couldn't move him and had to leave him to be taken prisoner. There were five VCs awarded for bravery on that little patch allocated to the 36th (Ulster) Division straddling the Ancre. The fifth was awarded to a captain of the relieving Yorks battalion at the Schwaben Redoubt the day after the day before. There were also many other brave Irishmen from Connaught and the other Provinces who fought along the line and died that day. Their sacrifice has never been acknowledged, It's fitting that Killaloo has become the official March of the RIR . The Connaught Rangers took it with them to the Somme all those years ago.
I've bin up late one evening in wind and rain myself experience I must say
Would the Royal and Inniskilling regiments use grey or white horses just like Scots Grey?
Nationalists need to acknowledge the sacrifice these brave men made even though i don't agree with polticswise
Was it Billy Brigs
“It if foolish and wrong to mourn the men that died. Rather we should thank god that such men lived.”-general patton.
"Lest We Forget" ❤❤❤
A very befitting end 😊
The neighbour she alerted was my father he told me the story many times RIP Freddie
It still leaves me feeling sad and angry that America’s WWI memorial wasn’t finished until years after the last American veteran of the war had died.
Then the part 2 begun
Very interesting..ty.
I lived in Derrygiff house used to bring my friends up here and they never wanted to get too close. Very creepy. My brother and I often visited it as it sat with all old furniture etc
we were up at the old house many times, other neighbours in our area used to hear loud bangs and weird noises coming from the house in the middle of the night
Wait is the oven yours ?!?
UVF FOR GOD AND ULSTER 🇬🇧✋🏻☘️ ALL GAVE SOME..SOME GAVE ALL
Ulster Men ✝️✅😇

Excellent.
If Thatcher gave him such a good press you know he was rotten to the core.
He was a very ugly and evil man who hated Ireland. Live by hatred, die by hatred.
Severely underrated channel - great video man!
Drilled in Omagh,Baronscourt and many a place in Co.Tyrone as well
He was a nasty piece of work and no doubt would have instigated a wave of repression against the nationalist community in the north of Ireland
Nazi
Thank you. Beautifully done
My father was called Norman Bell and died when i was 6 years old. I think i may be related to Eric ..
This is great my friend, as a northern Irish guy myself I am very proud of this regiment, my grandmother is from enniskillen and I’m glad wellington thought we had good troops, they were one of the best regiments in the British forces during the battle, up there with the Scots greys
Them men who left there country for English will always be remembered
