Dan Breen The Galtee Mountain Boy
Вставка
- Опубліковано 19 лют 2014
- In 1919 a group of young men barely out of their teens, poorly armed, with no money and little training, renewed the fight, begun in 1916, to drive the British out of Ireland. Dan Breen was to become the best known of them. At first they were condemed on all sides. They became outlaws and My Fight for Irish Freedom describes graphically what life was like 'on the run,' with 'an army at one's heels and a thousand pounds on one's head'. A burning belief in their cause sustained them through many a dark and bitter day and slowly support came from the people.

My grandfather was a Gun runner and dispatcher for Paddy Kinnane of Upperchurch. He robbed rifles one time from the now Garda College with was the British army Barracks at the time in Templemore. He was buried in Templemore in 1976 with the Tri Colour on his coffin. God rest them all brave men.
A true irish warrior r.i.p

Dan Breen is the greatest ever tipperary man bar none.
I was raised on the Galtee mountains / ballydrehid, I lived in England and overtime I got a glimpse of the galtee mountains on my return, my heart raced

I LOVE this song!! This was the first song I learned to play on my guitar
Those men who sacrificed their lifes for their country are true Irishmen!
hi Mike here love this song
They were Freedom Fighters that loved their country.
If they could only see Ireland now.😢
Dan Breen's wanted poster described him thus.Age 27, 5 feet 7 inches in height, bronzed complexion,dark hair(long in front),grey eyes, short cocked nose,stout build,weight about 12 stone,clean shaven; sulky bulldog appearance; looks rather like a blacksmith coming home from work; wears cap pulled well down over face.
These men and women gave their all for Ireland, today's politicians give all for themselves.
Very true. Spineless wonder's.
Time for the people to stand up once again
Fabulous song ...big handsome Daniel Breen the Legend.....
I love this song. I think there's a bit of a rebel in me. God bless men like Dan Breen.
These photo images are heartbreaking these incredible men and women who gave everything to free our country and save us from tyranny. Are these photos in a collection in a book?

Heroes All. Great Men All.
some great pics , is that a rerecording , it's definitely Brian Warfield but I never heard this version before , stay well Dan. fran
AAAAAA a blast from the past,
Hi: Yes a recording, great song....
Yes The Wolfe Tones .
It’s the wolfetones but tommy Byrne is singing , not Brian warfield.
Great song thanks for the posting Dan. Also really interesting photos - does anyone know who the third person in the photo at 0.08-0.13 with Sean Hogan and Dan Breen?
Cudgie 1000 Possibly Dinny Lacey Or Dinny Slattery
Myles Meagher Couldn't be Dinny Lacey as the photo was taken when Hogan and Breen went to America after the treaty was signed. It was probably taken around Jan 1922. They both returned to fight for the Republican side in the Civil War. But I am pretty sure Lacey never went to America. I am not sure who Dinny Slattery is.
It’s Ned o brien who escaped to America after the knocklong rescue
Would anyone know anything of his brother, John? maybe he is in one of these pictures?
hi Mike here
Great Song but I always thought the Galtee Mountain Boy was Dinny Lacey as he was shot in the Glen of Aherlow in the Galtee Mountains
It's beautiful up Glen of aherlow
the galtee mountain boy was commandant liam lynch.
He was from Anglesborough. So maybe. Heck of a song either way.

Respect for them brave men and women from The people's Socialist Republic of Liverpool.
Looks a bit like Robert Nairac.
Nairac filled the bellies of the dogs
at least mr breen dident end up through a meat grinder like our oxford friend .

Nairac was a coward with hundreds of British soldiers minding him.
