Overview

A young Irish-American man joins an elite US Marine unit to get the most intensive military training possible ... then joins the IRA, during the days of some of the bloodiest fighting ever in the Irish-British conflict.

Born in New York to Irish parents, John Crawley tells the true story of his involvement in the Irish Republican Army in the 1980s and 90s. Crawley fought British soldiers, ran guns from the US to Ireland with the help of notorious Boston mobster Whitey Bulger, was a mastermind of a bomb plot to take out London's electrical grid, was imprisoned and part of a mess-escape attempt, and more.
