Madam, - You were kind enough in 2003 to publish a letter of mine seeking information and reminiscences from former members of the Pearse Battalion. May I now tell all former members of the battalion (4,500 all ranks) and of D Company (Pearse) 20 Battalion (12,000 all ranks) that A History of the Pearse Battalion (1946-1959) is available from the undersigned? - Yours, etc,
LOUIS O'BRIEN, 36 Crannagh Park, Rathfarnham, Dublin 14.
