Commandant Walter Young explains that the exhibition attempts to recreate some of the essential elements of peacekeeping. Visitors will see a battalion headquarters, an operations and communication centre, and a bomb disposal exercise. There is also a display of photographs taken by airman John Daly.
Minister for Defence David Andrews had the opportunity to see the exhibition ahead of the opening to the public.
