Fort Camden Meagher, Crosshaven, County Cork ..Characters

Pictured at the recent Fort Camden Meagher Garrison event in Co. Cork...re-enactment specialist, Andy Keyes from Clonmel, Co Tipperary, Ireland.
I was drawn to photograph Andy at this event held on the site of a genuine fortress overlooking the entrance to Cork Harbour. Amongst the many other attractions on the day, you couldn't help noticing the variety of military uniforms worn by dedicated enthusiasts from Romans to the more recent conflicts.  This guy was straight out of the " Band of Brothers " of The Longest Day movie, of which I am a big fan.  This is one of several images taken of him, this one I think is the best of the images.
 Andy Keyes by the way is a man of many talents.  Having hooked up with him via Social Media, I was to find out that he is the host of a an online radio station,   playing great music 24/7   www.adk-radio.com The station is in support of Military and Veterans and broadcasts  live with Andy at the Helm Monday and Wednesday  0800 to 10:00 and 20:00 to 22:00 and on Friday evenings 20:00 to 22:00.
