I discovered this beautiful site several years ago, and I periodically come back for an inspirational visit.
My dad was a PO in the RCN, and my great uncle was an officer in the army. Neither saw action, but it has long instilled in me a great love for what all those great men and women did for our country.
Recently, I travelled to France and was able to visit Vimy and few other places where our war dead are commemorated. I must admit, it was extremely powerful and I became a little emotional. It only served to strengthen my bond with my beloved Canada.
Thank you for this wonderful memorial. May your uncles rest in peace, and may you and your family always know that our tremendous pride in them will never diminish.

This was very interesting to read & loved the oral history bit. Preserving original voices of those who have survived experiences very few of us will have. God bless you all. Warmest regards, Jamie E Tapper

Great website. I was stationed at Kalkar Air Station, Germany, in the mid-late 1980s. My friend and I use to go exploring in the Reichswald. I knew only a little of the battles of that area; of course I found the book "Rhineland" after I rotated back home!

My Dad was with the Royal Canadian Engineers and it was on April 2, 1945 that he, and his soldiers, were building a bridge across The Twenthe Canal and he earned his DSO
