In my opinion a brilliant film, it has done more to highlight the bravery of the personal of A Company and what they endured during the siege/battle.
Now time for our government, to take the final step, acknowledge their bravery, not just, with a general citation, while welcome, does not go far enough, each certificate awarded, could have held the name and number, of each member of A Coy, but the final step still needs to be taking, award them the D.S.M.

My opinion only.

Well said Andy it`s taken a long time many of those brave soldiers are no longer with us.
Why not edit a letter get as many people as you can to sign it .
A petition and send it to the Irish government .

Thanks Tony.
Smarter lads then I already on this, Paul Clarke and others on the job.
Did you listen to the radio link as posted by Mary Orford and shared by myself on face book, also many other interviews there by those that were in Jadotville at that time, well worth a listen.
