from
Brown Corpus
In Ireland's County Limerick, near the River Shannon, there is a quiet little suburb by the name of Garryowen, which means `` Garden of Owen ''.
Undoubtedly none of the residents realize the influence their town has had on American military history, or the deeds of valor that have been done in its name.
The cry `` Garryowen ''!!
Bursting from the lips of a charging cavalry trooper was the last sound heard on this earth by untold numbers of Cheyennes, Sioux and Apaches, Mexican banditos under Pancho Villa, Japanese in the South Pacific, and Chinese and North Korean Communists in Korea.
Garryowen is the battle cry of the 7th U.S. Cavalry Regiment, `` The Fighting Seventh ''.
