	From Cork to Toronto: The Irish military going forward
		Between 1997-2004, the proportion of the Defence Budget devoted to pay and allowances has never been less than 66 percent and has been as high as 78 percent - the capital spending arising from the barracks selloffs and the army deafness has pulled the figure into the low 70s in the last few years.
		The Reserve Defence Forces must be given statutory protection from dismissal by employers to ensure their availability on a par with the US National Guard and UK Territorials, but should be primarily an "Ireland Command" duty posting.
		The first principle which I feel Irish people cherish about the role of our military abroad is that we choose to keep our heads down to avoid the need for mutual defence pacts and automatic participation in conflicts.

		An Irish division or regiment is mud out here or anywhere and however fine it did there would be all sorts of nasty rumours.
