Скачать или смотреть The Isolated Grave of Major Willie Redmond – A Forgotten Story of War, Unity & Tragedy

The isolated grave of Major Willie Redmond in Locre, Belgium, stands as a haunting symbol of Irish history, World War 1, and the Royal Irish Regiment. A fierce advocate for Irish Home Rule, Redmond believed that the trenches of the Western Front could unite Protestants and Catholics, Unionists and Nationalists under a common cause. But history had other plans.

In this video, we explore Redmond’s journey from politics to war, his role in the Battle of Messines, and the tragic moment when he fell alongside the 36th (Ulster) Division, the very men he once opposed. Buried separately from his soldiers, his final resting place at the LOCRES ISOLATED GRAVE in Belgium tells a powerful story of sacrifice, division, and an Ireland that could have been different.
