The Irish always were brave warriors. That certainly did not change in the age of the tank when they held their own on the battlefields of Europe, in Asia and on the high seas. Over 200 thousand Irish fought in various roles during the Great War and as many as 50 thousand laid their lives down in perhaps the most brutal conflict in human history. Despite Ireland's official neutrality in World War Two, as many as ten thousand Irish men and women joined the Allied cause to liberate the world from the horrors of Nazi Germany and its Italian and Japanese allies. Many paid the ultimate price for their valor.
爱尔兰人一直都是勇敢的战士,这一点并未随着坦克时代的到来而改变 - 欧洲,亚洲以及公海的战场上都布满了他们的足迹。总共有20万以上的爱尔兰人以各种形式参与了一战,其中5万人在这场残酷的战争中失去了自己的生命。尽管爱尔兰在二战中保持中立,但仍然有一万名爱尔兰人加入了萌军,为了从轴心国的铁蹄下拯救世界而战。许多人为自己的勇气付出了生命的代价。
