Country life at a time of global conflict

I AM working on a book dealing with the Second World War years (officially known as ‘The Emergency’) in a Kilkenny town and district.

The book is almost complete but I would like, if possible, to acquire some wartime pictures of LDF (Local Defence Force) and/or LSF (Local Security Force) members who served or resided in any part of Co Kilkenny.

While the book focuses mainly on Callan and district, the sections recounting the activities of the defence forces and the colourful anti-invasion military precautions in the county necessarily cover a wider area.
