 To be in Ieper (Ypres) on St. Patrick’s
Day and take part in the Menin Gate Last Post ceremony is something
special, more so if you have a connection with a British Army Irish
regiment. The feeling you can get as you stand within the gateway is
something that you cannot experience any where else in the world. This
is, without any doubt, the place and the time to pay homage to all the
Irish servicemen who never returned home from Flanders. |
