James P. Tierney is proud to announce the release of his new book, From Dublin, to Bull Run, to Baghdad and Beyond: The Story of the Fighting 69th. This comprehensive history brings to life the incredible story of one of America’s most famous military units, tracing its roots from Irish immigrant militias in 1849 to its modern-day service in Operation Iraqi Freedom.
The 69th Infantry Regiment, famously known as “The Fighting 69th,” has a storied legacy of valor and sacrifice. It began with Irish immigrants fighting for respect and recognition in the United States and evolved into one of the most respected units in the U.S. military. In From Dublin, to Bull Run, to Baghdad and Beyond: The Story of the Fighting 69th, Tierney captures the unique identity and profound impact of the regiment over more than a century of military service.
“More than just a military unit, the 69th is a symbol of Irish-American pride and resilience,” said Tierney. “This book is a tribute to the courage, sacrifice, and unbreakable bonds that have been passed down through generations of soldiers.”
Tierney, a retired Colonel and longtime historian of the 69th Infantry Regiment, brings a wealth of knowledge to this project. Having served as the regiment’s historian and participated in several key military operations, including Operation Desert Storm, Tierney offers an insider’s perspective on the regiment’s evolution and contributions to major historical conflicts.
