In from the Cold - Sligo men and WW1 Ep1

In from the Cold - Sligo men and WW1 Ep1

Over 5,000 men from Sligo and the surrounding areas fought for the British Army in France and Belgium during World War 1, while the cause of Irish freedom and shifting public opinion changed the country that they left behind. For almost a century, their sacrifices had been ignored or diminished, save for the members of their families who quietly commemorated them. As we pass the 100th anniversary of the armistice that marked the end of World War I, we see how their history has been rehabilitated, as we consider their lives from 100 years later.
