Description
Established [WIP | NOT LAUNCHED] ▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬ Since 1958 the Defence Forces have had a continuous presence on armed United Nations peacekeeping operations, except between May 1974 to May 1978 (although they did retain overseas unarmed observer missions during this period). The first armed peacekeeping mission was to the Operation des Nations Unies au Congo (ONUC) in 1960. During the ONUC mission, a company from the Irish Army were involved in a battle at Jadotville, in which the Irish held-out against a larger force with minimal casualties relative to damage inflicted on Katangese forces. A memorial to Irish personnel who served as United Nations peacekeepers was unveiled in 2009 in the town of Fermoy. ▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬ Raids won: 0 Raids lost: 0 ▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬ Current War = None W - 0 L - 0 ▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬ Communications Code: [WIP] [Motto] =【"The cleanliness of our hearts, The strength of our limbs, And our commitment to our promise"】
