Charlie McGlade

Charlie McGlade was a volunteer in the Irish Republican Army (IRA) and later member of the member of Sinn Féin Ard Chomhairle (executive committee). Originally from Belfast (and later moving to Drimnagh in Dublin), McGlade joined the IRA in the late 1920s. He was arrested several times for IRA activities, and in the early 1940s was shot and wounded by Special Branch Gardaí in Dublin. McGlade's shooting was one of the justifications given by the IRA for the killing of Special Branch Sergeant Denis O'Brien.
