Interesting Militaria Website
I recently came across this Irish website and while I cannot recommend it – not knowing anybody involved – it looks very promising. http://theirishwar.com/
Medals from Black and Tan war; 1920s Irish Army helmets etc. Stuff looks the real deal but, as always, buyer beware.
