Irish Soldiers in Congo Remembered
from Cork News Today | 2 Min News | The Daily News Now!
This Friday, Cork City Hall honors Ireland’s forgotten heroes with ‘Jadotville Remembered’ — a powerful tribute to 155 Irish soldiers who bravely stood against 3,500 enemy troops in the Congo in 1961, surviving an aerial bombing with zero casualties. Led by Commandant Pat Quinlan, their story will be told firsthand by his son, Leo, at an event also raising funds for homeless veterans through One, Ireland’s leading veteran support group. Every dollar will go toward furnishing a new home for a deserving veteran — turning remembrance into real, lasting support. Support the show:Get a discount at https://solipillow.com/discount/dnn.
