Three Cork brothers who died fighting for Canadians in WWII to be commemorated today

Three Irish brothers who died fighting for the Canadians in World War Two are to be commemorated in a special ceremony in Belgium today and plans are being drawn up to build a monument to them in their birthplace in Co Cork.

The Brussels-based Irish in Europe Association, an organisation which helps Irish diaspora and promotes Ireland abroad, is to honour the memory of the Sheehan brothers who came from Fermoy.
