The 16th anniversary commemoration of Volunteer Martin 'Doco' Doherty took place on Sunday last. Dublin Brigade Volunteer Doherty, was gunned down by a British-sponsored loyalist death squad while heroically attempting to prevent a massacre in Widow Scallans pub on 21st May 1994.
A large crowd gathered in Finglas village for the commemoration parade to the grave of Martin at Glasnevin Cemetery. The Dublin Republican Flute Band and the Volunteer Martin Doherty Republican Flute Band from Glasgow were in attendance. An Ógra Shinn Féin colour party, dressed to mark a century of republican youth in struggle also played a significant part in the commemoration.
Martin's comrade, Eamon Nolan, gave the main speech at the commemoration.
