He references 1915 Belfast figures from John Redmond and Macpherson data noting thousands from Belfast joined the colors, many Catholics as well, and claims about 90,000 of 123,58 recruits were not Carmel or Carleton supporters, supported by a London Daily Express note on demobilized soldiers joining Republicans.
