“The photo is of my late Dad Jim Bishop, 28 Tuskamore Avenue, Rosslare Harbour, Co. Wexford who died in June 2009 aged 92. I remember him telling me about this photograph being taken when he was working in Dublin, he had joined the army based in Collins Barracks. The date is an estimate, I am only guessing it as I don’t think he was married when this photo was taken. We love and miss him dearly, I am just regretting I didn’t listen to his stories at the time.”
