Always had a special fondness for Lt-Col John McCrae and his heart touching poem. He was a Canadian, this article written in a British paper leaves that out which by omission seemingly implies he is British instead of Canadian.

Now as for the wearing of poppies to remember those who died in service, no people do it up like the Canadians, it is almost a national symbol to Canadians.

My Grandfather was gassed a Ypres in 1915 with the Canadian Black Watch and my Great Uncle was with the New Found Land Regiment.

Great People, never talked about their experiences until me and my cousins got back from Nam, I figured they thought we grew up.
