    Default International Brigade, Spain

    I'm looking for information about people from the Highlands & Islands who went off to Spain in the 1930's to fight for the Republic against Franco's fascists.

    If you know anybody, such as a father or grandfather, who joined the International Brigade or POUM, or any related history, please contact me off-board at gobbledegook@ukonline.co.uk
    or tel 01862 811233


    Many thanks
