Senior officers of I Company (Vickers MC MM at centre), with their Auxiliary Company flags. Note one intrepid cadet is armed with an old African spear. This photo (courtesy Ballyroughan) was probably taken at Beggar's Bush before I Coy were moved to Monaghan. Members of this unit were involved in the Croke Park shootings.
 References to 'Black and Tan flags' can sometimes be found in the literature. It is recorded that one of the flags shown here flew over Carrickmacross RIC Barracks in 1921.

Peter,
I wonder is the third from the left in the back row the chap on the left here?

There's a similarity Paddy, for sure. Different company though I suspect, unless he moved between I and another.

Peter,
The other chap looks like the one on the right with the guy in civvies on his shoulder.
