The Corridor was located over south Donegal, north Leitrim, and north Sligo, and met the Atlantic. The Donegal Corridor is especially interesting for one reason in particular. Although De Valera had declared that Ireland would maintain a neutral position in the war, they did not completely avoid participation. As the Battle of the Atlantic broke out, it became obvious to Ally forces that planes would be needed for protection to ship convoys against the German U-boats. Ireland allowed the Allies to gain access to the Atlantic through their safe, neutral territory in County Donegal. The path that the Allies were allowed to take came to be known as the Donegal Corridor. Of course, this kind of Irish involvement led to deeper involvement. Eventually, the Irish were so aware of the Ally planes that they could report when one crashed before the British knew about. They often had a hand in sending the Ally troops safely back on their way as well. Source A related resource from which the described resource is derived McGowan, Joe. 2003.

Title A name given to the resource Brendan Finucane, Fighting Against Neutrality Date A point or period of time associated with an event in the lifecycle of the resource 1938-1942 Coverage The spatial or temporal topic of the resource, the spatial applicability of the resource, or the jurisdiction under which the resource is relevant 1938-1942 Description An account of the resource Brendan Finucane was also known as Patty. He was born in Dublin in October of 1920. He died in the RAF (British Royal Air Force) in July of 1942. This photograph of Brenan represents the group of Irish young men who fought in World War Two with the British Army. Although Ireland had declared neutrality, some of the population disagreed with the action. Brendan represented Ireland well. He shot down thirty two Axis planes. It’s interesting to note that not everyone agreed with De Valera’s decision to keep the country neutral. De Valera felt that neutrality would protect the Irish people. He felt that Ireland would have little, if any effect on the outcome of the war, but feared that the war would have a massive effect on Ireland. Obviously, some Irish men disagreed and felt the urge to join the Allies and fight the Axis powers. To this day, Brendan Finucane with his clover emblazoned spitfire are recognized as one of the great fighting aces of World War Two. Brendan was not the only Irishman with a want to help the Allies cause. Some 50,000 Irishmen joined the British Armed Forces.

Title A name given to the resource The Belfast Blitz Date A point or period of time associated with an event in the lifecycle of the resource 1941 Coverage The spatial or temporal topic of the resource, the spatial applicability of the resource, or the jurisdiction under which the resource is relevant 1941 Description An account of the resource The fact that the Irish declared neutrality in the war seemed to not matter much to the Germans. It is important to note that since Northern Ireland was part of Great Britain, they were technically at war despite the declaration of Irish Neutrality. The once ignored Belfast drew attention to itself as it grew to a large ship building port. Unfortunately, the German’s conducted raids over Belfast more than once, three times to be exact. One of the German bombing blitzes on Belfast left thousands dead or homeless. It is interesting that despite the German bombing on Belfast De Valera still offered his condolences when the Nazi leader Hitler passed away. One would think that after having the Germans encroach upon their homeland after they had declared a state of neutrality they would take up arms.
