Whats the mane of theses songs played in the video ? And where can I find it ?

[Tuatach]

@ToMoOhKa The music is a medley "Molly Bloom" (a reference to Leopold Bloom’s wife in James Joyces' classic novel of Dublin life, “Ulysses”, and was arranged by Col. James Doyle who was a director in The Army School of Music up to 1971. It comprises four tunes associated with Dublin and not to do with Ulysses as such. The tunes come from traditional folk-ballads of Dublin city; (1) “Jack of all Trades”, (2)”Finnegan’s Wake”, (3) “Three Flowers”, (4) “Molly Malone”.

@Tuatach The Army Band version which is on the video was on recordings issued in the 1970’s and I doubt if available now. Some of the original songs were recorded at various times by local folk-group “The Dubliners”, whom, I think, are known in Europe and you might be able to find those locally.

@Tuatach There are some Army Band mp3's for download at "Defence Forces School of Music" but, not the tunes on this video.

The Glorious 27 Inf Bn.

Indeed! An Irish company of 150 men defeating a force which outnumbered them 20-1 and had complete air superiority in a fierce six day battle which saw the Irish surrounded and without heavy weapons. The Katangese asked for the ceasefire, and their officers had to shoot their own men to keep them facing the Irish garrison. The Irish were then outmaneuvered diplomatically and forced to surrender due to UN inadequacy. I think that Jadotville does indeed sum up the the Irish Army.
