beachcomber	Origins: Song heard as a child: Free State Army (15)	Origins: Song heard as a child	26 Mar 19
A song that I heard on an old 78rpm record when I was very young,(C 1940s) came fleetingly to my memory just lately as I watched Pathe Newsreel footage of the Irish Civil War, online. The only words that I can now remember go ...... "I'm in the Free State Army now, The Volunteer Reserve, Oh may the saints preserve the country that we serve " I wonder if any mudcatters, particularly Irish ones I suppose, rem hearing it or, better still, can furnish the entire song. I remember the tune but, unfortunately, am unable to post any kind of a sound track.
