What is recorded here
Bombing 1975 is a memorial in County Louth, Ireland. Perhaps Jack Rooney and Hugh Watters walked past this exact spot on the 19th of December 1975, unaware that the Dundalk bombing would erase them from the world. Maybe the stone exists only to refuse that erasure, holding their names against the violence that took them.
To the memory of Jack Rooney and Hugh Watters murdered near this place in the Dundalk bombing of the 19th of December 1975
