A rare event will take place in Letterkenny in May when the Minister with Responsibility for Defence Paul Kehoe will review the 114th Battalion.
Over 400 members of the defence forces led by Lieutenant Colonel Paul Kelly, who is originally from Letterkenny, will parade in Letterkenny on Friday 3rd May at 11am.
They will be assembling in the St Eunan’s College Football Field for inspection by the Minister. They will then march to the reviewing stage at Market Square and then on to the Community Centre.
It is expected that many families will come to Letterkenny on the Thursday evening to stay over to see the parade.
A spokesman for Letterkenny Chamber said “This will be a unique and special event in Letterkenny.”
