United Ireland: How Nationalists and Unionists Fought Together in Flanders

The First World War is part of Ireland’s shared history. This feature length documentary presented by Ronan McGreevy of The Irish Times tells the story of how the nationalist 16th (Irish) Division and the 36th (Ulster) Division fought together in Flanders during the battle of Messines Ridge and Passchendaele in 1917. The story of the nationalist officer Willie Redmond and the unionist stretcher bearer John Meeke, who rescued him from the battlefield, has inspired those who hope to promote peace in Ireland through the remembrance of a conflict which claimed more Irish lives than any other in history. This film is made with the assistance of the Department of Foreign Affairs, the Imperial War Museum and Visit Flanders. Read more: https://www.irishtimes.com/culture/he...
