Just wanted to show the badges of the five Irish line Infantry regiments that were disbanded in 1922 following the creation of the Irish Free State.They had a long and proud tradition and fought in all the major actions of the Great War.They were the Royal Irish Regiment,Connaught Rangers, Royal Dublin Fusiliers,Royal Munster Fusiliers, and The Leinster Regiment.
