Looking for a Photo from The Clonbanin Commemoration 1971

Ciara sent us the below message, can anyone help her in her search?

Hi, I’m trying to find anyone who might have a photo of the 1971 commemoration of the Clonbanin Ambush. My grandfather took part and my Dad remembers a photo was taken of the surviving IRA men including my grandfather. I’ve searched online newspaper archives but haven’t found anything.
Thank you. Ciara
