Remembrance Day

Today as Canadians, we reflect and remember the sacrifice soldiers have made for freedom.

My grandfather fought in the Second World War and was part of the Liberation of the Netherlands. My uncle actually has my grandfathers old war journal, it's very emotional to read through it. My grandfather carefully noted each location and how long he stayed with little ticks. He passed away when I was a little girl.  I wish I could remember him.
