    The National Hunger Strike Commemoration was held in Co. Tyrone last weekend, for the first time in its history. Activists from all over Ireland and beyond gathered in the town of Galbally to commemorate 10 brave Volunteers who gave their lives in pursuit of freedom and against the injustice of imperialism.

    Photos of the events and re-enactments (which ranged from Special Branch interrogation techniques, to an active service unit, to a British Army sanger constructed on the back of a truck, to a re-enactment of a checkpoint arrest, can be viewed on Flickr here: http://www.flickr.com/photos/16144312@N07/ (not mine)
