Link: Irish Defence Forces Archives
« on: Thursday 15 December 11 13:47 GMT (UK) »
New website for the Irish Defence Forces Archives

   http://www.militaryarchives.ie/

Military Archives is the place of deposit for the records of the Department of Defence, the Defence Forces and the Army Pensions Board.

Currently includes searchable maps, plans and image database, and will soon have details of the Bureau of Military History (1913-1921) and  Military Archives Image Identification Project.

You can access the witness statements website via it's IP address at : http://95.45.178.102/

apparently the proper URL will be www.bureauofmilitaryhistory.ie
