Taken this afternoon during the events to mark the 7oth Anniversary of the bombing of the North Strand area of Dublin by the Luftwaffe.

Noel Brady, age 91 (and still a member of the St John’s Ambulance Brigade), waits for a lift home at the spot where one of the – four – bombs dropped on Dublin on May 31, 1941.

Noel was one of the first on the scene.

Earlier German Ambassador Busso Von Alvensleben unveiled a plaque to the dead at the commemorative ceremony and looked every inch his extraordinary name.:
