This is a selection of songs by Paul O’Brien we are sharing today , a century after the Great War ended .
The songs are all based on real people , local men who lost their lives in that terrible conflict .
While there are different opinions on how we should remember or commemorate these events of 100 years ago , nobody disagrees that World War One represented an horrific loss of life and the thousands of Irishmen (and millions of other nationalities) should never be forgotten .
If you have any family stories or photos from this period you wish to share please contact :
