A gov't that basks in Christianity and never forgets
the sacrifices the soldiers made.
It was sickening to see Martin show up a day late and
then try to sugar coat it. I know the veterans in holland
were not impressed but being the gentlemen they are and
having grown up with manners and respect (unlike todays
typical punk kid) they still bit their tongue very
well and were very modest and forgiving.....a very
admirable trait and a trait which characterizes "our
finest generation".
I have said it before and I will say it again.....if
Canadian veterans could roll in their graves they would
but they are in a better place....heaven.
So far as the living veterans....hard to say what they
think. A victory for them at their age is getting out
of bed in the morning and finding their teeth....no insult
intended. Tons of respect for these guys. Just a little
humour. We will all be there someday.....everyone ages
and everyone dies.
