A commemoration took place last Sunday 27th June to mark the 37th anniversary of the death on active service of Volunteer Dermot Crowley. Dermot along with two Tyrone comrades, Pat Carty & Sean Loughran were killed near Omagh Co Tyrone on the 25th June 1973 and every year Cork Republicans gather at Dermot's graveside to remember his sacrifice and pay tribute to his memory.
The commemoration was chaired by Pat Coughlan of the Vols Ahern/Crowley Cumann and the oration was given by Arnie O'Connell, those assembled on the day were led to the cemetery by the Youghal Vols RFB.
