Kevin Barry was a hero but actually he wasn't that special, then most of the IRA fighters were heroes who fought for the freedom of their homeland. In any case, Kevin Barry gives a face to the resistance against the British. Because one shouldn't forget that the Irish rebel army was made up of many fighters like Kevin and they all risked death as did Kevin. But unfortunately the problem with rebel armies is fundamentally that the individual seems unimportant and disappears in the mass. But the fact is that a rebel army out of many individuals who are all willing to fight and risk their lives for the freedom of their homeland. Therefore it is important to remember not only the leaders but also simple fighters like Kevin Barry because without them the IRA would not have existed.
