History: The Irish Republican Army (IRA) emerged from the Irish Volunteers following the 1916 Easter Rising, becoming the main force fighting against British rule during the Irish War of Independence (1919–1921). Fighters like this one operated in small, mobile units known as flying columns, relying on guerrilla tactics such as ambushes and raids. Equipped with captured or smuggled weapons, they fought to end British control and secure a free Ireland, later finding themselves divided during the subsequent Civil War. This figure captures the resilience and determination of those involved in Ireland’s struggle for nationhood.
