Battle of St. Matthews Commemorative Committee

A COMMITTEE has recently been formed to commemorate/ celebrate the upcoming 40th Anniversary of the Battle of St. Matthews.  It is our intention to have a series of events during that week and one of the projects we are planning is a DVD charting the unfolding events of that week and a telling of the story from the people who were directly involved/affected during this historic moment in the current phase of the struggle. We are asking people who may have old footage/still photos/memorabilia/newspaper cuttings from the period to loan them to us to assist us in this project.  We will take great care of anything which is given to us and we will scan/copy all photos/cuttings asap and return them to their owners. We would be very grateful if people could contact us at  07876460016 or by email at pod.devenny@ yahoo.com.  Anyone wishing to help out should also use those contact details.
