Ambush memorabilia to go on display
The ambush of British troops took place on January 28, 1921, and a month later five volunteers captured at the scene were executed in Victoria Barracks, Cork (now Collins Barracks).
Since that fateful day, the men are remembered at a commemoration ceremony in Dripsey each year. The organising committee would like to hear from anybody who may be able to provide pictures, leaflets, press clippings or film material from these gatherings. Books relating to the ambush and its aftermath also would be welcome.
