Score 1 point for common decency in Canada.
Given our Social War with the Left, we need every little scrap of history that we can preserve.
GALLANT ABORIGINAL
"Government also shrugged when the World War II valour medals of Tommy Prince were for sale -- our most gallant aboriginal soldier in that conflict."
My father served with Tommy Prince in the FSSF and was a good friend of Tommys.Dad says that the man was fearless, and among that crowd that says volumes. Sadly the gov't of Canada turned its back not only on Tommys medals, but on the man himself, as he died broke on the rez. One of WW2's true greats.
