    Did they fix the mistakes on the weapons page???

    Edit: They fixed the weapons page by removing the weapons that they had information incorrect for.

    Considering their old website was fully translated as Gaeilge(incl the domain), their new Gaeilge site is pretty pathetic - 1 paragraph explaining the DF's commitment to the Irish language.:rolleyes:

    Other than that its an improvement on the old design at least. Still needs work though.

    Mileata.ie/ is still online, so maybe it's in the works?

    I can't find anything at all on the new DF website about an upper age limit, or the fact that a different age limit applies to graduates than to school leavers for cadetships.

    Any thoughts?
