Irregardless of the war it refers to. I always thought the song was about someone recalling a former flame(possibly their spouse) being involved in a war(possibly a civil war or a war in their own country), and the person recalling how brave that person was, or a person remembering a friend from a war(like a fellow soldier) who was braver than the singer was in facing the "buggles and drums in the distant"(the opposing army). Just my interpretation though.

"Irregardless" is a meaningless double negative and a poor word to start your comment.
