Letter to the Editor: Appoint Cathal Berry as Minister for Defence
As a former classmate and colleague of Dorcha Lee, I subscribe fully to the issues he raised concerning the abysmal state of the Defence Forces of this country — ‘Call to halt depletion of Defence Forces‘ ( , May 27). It gladdened me to also read the editorial comment of this newspaper.
Many other democracies revere their defence forces. Whatever one thinks about Trump and Johnson and other leaders in the free world, to a man or a woman, they respect those who wear the uniform of their respective states, and treat them accordingly.
