It would be funny if this Irish rebel song "First Cork Brigade" was sung by an Irish singer on the talent show "Britain's Got Talent". It would be even funnier if this video was shown in the background on the big screen. The songs "Go On Home British Soldiers" or "Rifles of the IRA" would be funny too!
I find it interesting that in this and Belfast Brigade, they claim their slogan as "no surrender!" when typically that phrase is associated with Ulster loyalists. Its obviously not intentional, just a funny coincidence.
@@EyelingThe Ulster Scots are just as Irish as any other, don’t let the British and their toolish fools in the Orange Order change history, Wolfe Tone, Parnell, were Protestants and not at all full blooded Gaels, and yet no sane person can deny that they were just as Irish as anyone else and just as connected to the land. Be they Ulster Scot, or descendants of Normans, or full-blooded Gaels, all United Irishmen. m.th-cam.com/video/3H_uIZsrkx4/w-d-xo.html
@@johndorney7812 I have a lot of experience firing rifles. I have a rifle and I have a cap like the one they are wearing in the photo. The only way the peak of a cap could get in the way of a person firing a rifle, is if they pulled the peak so far down that they had to tilt there head up all the way to see when they walked. The peak of a cap does not get in the way of firing a rifle. Try it for yourself. You don't know the answer to my question so you are just making stuff up.
That's not true! Not the entire First Cork Brigade but the flying column of the 4th Battalion, First Cork Brigade was wiped out after being surprised in their base camp by a British Army patrol. Twelve members of the column were dead, eight were captured and only one had escaped.
@GreatPolishWingedHussars that was at clonmult East cork the 1/2/3 cork brigades were the most fearless and the most effective brigades the IRA had in the country cork was a nightmare for the British terror machine of that time

Yep.
No surrender was a republican slogan during the war for independence
@@WjfhdhShshshsh Thank you, I didn't know that. I suppose it predates the Ulster Loyalists using it a lot.
@@WjfhdhShshshsh I suppose that like most things, the Ulster Scots nicked it from somewhere else. They love to appropriate stuff.

Respect from the "colonies" the United States of America!!💪🇺🇸🇮🇪
Why do they have there hats on backwards?
Because if you were firing a rifle the peak of the cap got in the way.
@@johndorney7812
Are you sure about that?
@@77tubuck pretty sure, yes. There are lots of photos from that era of IRA firing rifles with caps turned backwards.

The first Cork,was slaughtered
I'm afraid you are wrong, sir.

@@olieahern1318 They were heroes!
as were many Irish fighters at the time, and yet despite the martyrs' deaths the enemy was forced to retreat!
Google Dunmanway Killings and then consider if they had so much to sing about.
For what it's worth, that was 3rd Cork Brigade.
