Irish Army 25 pdrs fire a 21 gun salute at the Inauguration of President Michael D Higgins 11/11/11. It was an absolutely terrible day weather wise- bucketing down for the duration of the ceremony.



The crackling noise on the Video is rain on the plastic bag I had to wrap my camera in

Hi Pat,

That's one miserable day for a parade.

I do like seeing pristine 25 pdr guns as I know then I don't need to do any work on them.
