Regiments Returned from Boer War to Victoria Barracks, Cork Trailer (1902)

22 May 1902 Factual 2 mins

Despite Irish misgivings, some 30,000 Irish soldiers fought in the Boer War. In a neat lesson in colonial history, the barracks were named after Queen Victoria in 1849 and rapidly re-named 'Collins Barracks' after Irish independence.
