Another great song, Robbie. I grew up hearing about him too. Have you seen this short documentary on his life in the Comeraghs. It's by a young Carrick film maker, Tom Fitzpatrick, and narrated by a few people you might know from the Brewery Lane. It's on YouTube.

Thanks for this. Robbie. Especially good to remember at Armistice Day and Veteranss Day time
Brilliant song, brilliant story.

Hi Annie, I’ll look for that and add it to the post and the YouTube of the song (if it’s different from the one we found.) Thanks!
Thanks Roxanne, I couldn't figure out how to share it, but its well worth watching.
It’s the same documentary 😊
Great stuff. There's some wonderful stuff in it! Enjoy!!
