Collins Barracks also has a fantastic WWI display (though they do not allow photography of it). Among the items they have are a German uniform to an Irish regiment in the German army (mega rare uniform), mg108, lots of fussiliers and inniskillings medals and uniforms and field pieces etc.



Here are some pics to give an idea (though this display is not WWI as they do not allow photography in that part).

I love those old black and whites,looking at the one of the Germans marching through the Brandenburg Gate is the one for me,looking at that and thinking I stood there myself only a couple of years back.The trusty old Kodak, wasn't it a great invention,the British tried to ban the use of these supposedly for security purposes and NOT because it showed the truth to those at home.I have a few British postcards that I'll try and post up later if I get a chance.Cheers for those ones Morlar,great stuff.
