This year we will recruit over 700 new Defence Forces members - a 69% increase on our 2023 intake. We’ve turned the corner on recruitment, and I look forward to further progress in the transformation of our Army, Air Corps and Naval Service in the years to come.

Recruitment is one thing. Retention is the problem, particularly for individuals with certain skill sets. What is the overall strength like? Pensions, allowances, technical pay, not forgetting the working time directive, all need attention.

Have they all got UN credit cards and phones? Are they housed in barracks and billets around the country. Are they primed to suppress the rights and will of the Irish people? Them lads? The mercenaries?

Recruitment is only one part of the solution. The lack of action in retaining personnel, especially those with the skill sets required to maintain operational effectiveness, is more worrying. Couple this with the total lack of urgency in resourcing those who defend the nation.

What about those who ‘left’ due to #harassment for being #sick and highlighting why they were sick? Or those who died or are still suffering due to #toxic #chemical #exposure? Remember the people you promised to help in 2017? #IrishAirCorps #DelayDenyDie #110Dead

On 09 September 25, the Defence Forces unveiled the new Óglaigh na hÉireann GAA jerseys in Croke Park. A symbol of our shared organisational values of community, teamwork, and pride. Defence Forces GAA President Major General Anthony McKenna was in attendance and said “I am delighted to be here today for the launch of the new Óglaigh na hÉireann Cumann Luthchleas Gael jerseys. The GAA and the Defence Forces share deeply rooted values of community, teamwork, and commitment, and we have always enjoyed a proud tradition of working closely together. These jerseys are a symbol not only of our partnership but also of the enduring spirit of service and pride that both organisations represent. I look forward to seeing them worn with the same dedication and passion that define both Óglaigh na hÉireann and Cumann Luthchleas Gael. Ag tacu agus ag eadroma ar gCluichi Naisiunta”. Uachtarán Chumann Lúthchleas Gael Jarlath Burns said: "I am delighted to officially welcome members of the Defence Forces to Croke Park today in recognition of the long relationship our organisations share and the Gaelic games competitions they organise for their members. The cast of players they have invited here today to help with the unveiling of new Defence Forces GAA jerseys underlines the calibre of players involved and the high regard in which our games are held. The presence of members of the Defence Forces on the biggest days in our calendar, through the involvement of the colour parties, reminds us of the long and enduring links with Cumann Lúthchleas Gael and I hope this is something that continues for many years to come." #IrishDefenceForces #DefendOurState
