    One of the many interesting aspects, to me, of this much reproduced photo is the figure at right in the big hat with his hand on a saber: George Armstrong Custer.
  • Gary Weaver said:
    To my view, they are all little men but one. Sacket might give him a go.

    I never visited the Antietam Battlefield, but I DID visit Gettysburg, the Battle of the Wilderness, Chancelorsville, and Fredericksburg. It's a sobering visit and moment in your lifetime to traverse soil that was drenched in the blood of Union and Confederate soldiers. Hallowed ground, that these sites are. But, in the words of Ulysses S. Grant at the Appomattox Courthouse, " These (Confederate) men were once our enemy....they are now our fellow countrymen." And so, the confederates merely dropped their rifles, and went fishing for the rest of the day.

    I wonder why this photo was copied with the book and the large margin included. It would be nice to be able to see the picture as it was originally taken,

    POINT OF INFORMATION On Wednesday 31st January 2018 the NLI Flickr Photostream with all the research and information gathered will be archived. The Irish Web has been archived by the NLI over the past several years and this has led to the archiving of the photostream. Carol has been linking the information gathered on each shot to the catalogue and now the archiving will ensure that it is preserved for future reference for those who may wish to research!

    Wikipedia on The O'Rahilly. Datewise, this must surely be after the formation of the Volunteers in 1913.

    Streetview of the plaque marking his place of birth.

    One of the truly heroic figures from those times. Thanks for the photo. Hadn’t seen it before.
