An Taoiseach John A. Costello inspects ranks of An Gárda Síochána in Glenties 1951

Summary[edit]

Description
English: Mr. John A. Costello looks decidedly discombobulated as he is escorted by Church and State to some event in Donegal. The title suggests that he has a guard of honour of soldiers, but those are actually some of An Garda Síochána's finest. Their uniform, with the closed collars, should be some guide to the latest date this could have been taken? Where, why and what?

Collection: Tynan Photographic Collection
