There's probably going to be a ceremony in City Park like last year...A bunch of WWII vets were there marching along with a lot of cops and firefighters from our city, with Scottish Bagpipes playing in the background. I was in Air Cadets so I got to march in the back with my group.

Hopefully there's going to be something a little better this year.

There's also a Canadian WWII Museum downtown, I haven't been to it yet, but I probably should. I like stuff like that, In Russia I visited a WWII Museum in Moscow. Really interesting; I took plenty of pictures of the weapons and stuff too.

I also heard on the radio that around 1000 WWII vets are dying monthly...really sad.
