The mural above to INLA volunteer Neil McMonagle is in Leafair Park, Derry, where McMonagle, aged 23, was shot dead by undercover British soldiers on February 2, 1983. It shows an armed McMonagle behind a stone wall with a Plough In The Stars flag with a blue background, with the view towards Buncrana (perhaps).
“Vol Neil McMonagle, Derry Brigade INLA. Killed in action 2nd February 1983. “They may kill the revolutionary but never the revolution.””
