vea53 Posted 23 March , 2011 Share Posted 23 March , 2011 These are photographs of William Wallace born 1906, a friend's grandfather. I am trying to find out any information I can for her. Forum users in the Uniform section have identified the collar badges as possibly the 10th battalion of the Irish Infantry from 1924 to 1931, can any of you who are familiar with Irish Military service add to this please. I am not sure where to go next to find out about soldiers who served after the Great War. This was obviously an important time in Ireland. Many Thanks Vea53 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
