archangel9 Posted 4 February , 2010 Share Posted 4 February , 2010 Hope someone can help. I remember seeing a map of Ireland showing the geographic locations of the various regiments, Connaught Rangers, Royal Irish Rifles, Fusiliers, etc. I either saved the picture or the link (I think!!) but can't find it now of course! Can anyone point me in the right direction? Thanks in advance. John Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
