Ciara can’t beat graduating as Bobby

A LIMERICK woman has swapped the drill of the army barracks square for the beat of a London Bobby.

Ciara Fitzgerald graduated as a member of the London Met proudly wearing her Irish defence forces service medal.

Before heading for England and a career in the police, Ciara served with the Reserve Defence Force (RDF) at Limerick’s Sarsfield Barracks home of the 12th Infantry Battalion.
