Thanks for the ping.

Thanks. Yes, WWII was a horrible time for Europe. Many British and French soldiers died in France very early in the War. BTW, my father-in-law was in the The Black Watch of Canada (Royal Highland Regiment) during the early 1950s and is a member of the Royal Canadian Legion. Some of his training was similar in purpose to some of my (American) training much later.

I still call it Dominion Day, and not only that I drink Dominion Ale to celebrate the Red Ensign.
