He did not directly lead any of the attacks on <a href="/wiki/Bloody_Sunday_(1920)" title="Bloody Sunday (1920)">Bloody Sunday</a> but was on standby in one of the Squad's safe houses.

After his release, Daly, along with <a href="/wiki/Emmet_Dalton" title="Emmet Dalton">Emmet Dalton</a>, was also involved in the attempt to free <a href="/wiki/Sean_Mac_Eoin" class="mw-redirect" title="Sean Mac Eoin">Sean Mac Eoin</a> from <a href="/wiki/Mountjoy_Prison" title="Mountjoy Prison">Mountjoy Prison</a> on 14 May 1921.

The plan involved Dalton and Joe Leonard impersonating two British army officers (wearing Dalton's uniforms from his days as a soldier during World War I) and using forged documents to "transfer" MacEoin to <a href="/wiki/Dublin_Castle" title="Dublin Castle">Dublin Castle</a>. They gained entry to Mountjoy, but were discovered before they could free MacEoin and had to shoot their way out. They later abandoned the armoured car after removing the <a href="/wiki/Hotchkiss_machine_gun" title="Hotchkiss machine gun">Hotchkiss machine guns</a> and setting fire to what they could. Towards the end of the war, in May 1921, the two principal fighting units of the IRA's Dublin Brigade, the "Squad" and the "Active Service Unit" were amalgamated after losses suffered in the <a href="/wiki/Burning_of_the_Custom_House" title="Burning of the Custom House">Burning of the Custom House</a>.
