This courageous man was from my father's home town. From the details provided, Corporal Gallagher would be a very suitable candidate for this honour.

Ireland and the US have always had a strong relationship and I think Gallagher is a physical representation of this!

Patrick Gallagher an honourable man, selfless , heroic & inspirational. A credit to his people , his country of birth & the flag he gave his life for while serving in Vietnam. He could give no more & deserves recognition for his bravery. A fitting way to keep his memory alive.
