I was involved with the parade and ceremony here in Calgary, then I went to Leigon #1 this afternoon and got to talk to all the vets. One vet asked us if we liked Germans, and we said we were indifferent toward them, and he continued to say "I fucking hate those German bastards." Kind of funny, but he went on to explain atrocities that happened, and you can understand why he would feel that way. It's too bad that those people from all over the world had to go through such things.

I also met a Calgary Higlander Sniper. One of only 5 in the entire unit. He was involved in Dieppe with the Highlanders Mortar platoon, and spent over 3.5 years overseas.

If you see a WWII vet, talk to them. They won't be around for much longer. Just remember that the next generation won't even know or talk to any of the people who kept the world free.

Lest We Forget.

Went to barbeque after barbeque yesterday and met up with some old friends, but i really dont keep in touch with them. We reminiced and were amazed we can still fit in our uniforms. Spent much of the time feeding and taking care of the older, real vets. Someone spilt some kind of sauce on my pants mad:
