British Soldiers Leaving Ireland, 1922. 'After years of bloodshed, a treaty was signed, and in Dublin, a new flag replaced the Union jack. Ireland, save the six counties of Ulster, had become the Irish Free State...Down came the barriers and barbed wire so long associated with British rule and the crown's forces, marched out for good. After such years of tension and being sniped at, the (British) lads were glad to go. And, let's face it, Ireland too was glad'. From "Time To Remember - Sitting Still And Going Slowly", 1922 (Reel 1); review of events in 1922 including Irish Troubles, war between Greece and Turkey and developments in aviation and radio.
