Honor this brave man. Many other Irish men volunteered to serve. This one should stand for all.

Shows yet again the closeness between our two nations. Shows how immigrants want to integrate and uphold American values.

Only just read of Patrick's brave action ... Many Irishmen have died courageously for the US in all wars ... let the USS Patrick Gallagher be a fitting memory to all the men who never returned to their beautiful island home again. Beir Bua.
