NOVEMBER 11TH REMBERENANCE DAY

This year marks the 100th Anniversary of the signing of the Armistice to end the First World War. The Great War, The War to end all Wars.

There are no veterans of the First World War left to tell the stories of courage and sacrifice, of the cold and wet and the fear.

The Second World War only a generation later, Korea, the Middle East, Africa, Vietnam, Bosnia, Afghanistan, the list goes on.

And the old warriors fade away.

As Members of the Royal Canadian Legion it our Obligation and our Duty to ensure that the sacrifices of the Men and Women of our Armed Forces are not forgotten.  Current serving personal, also need us to continue to support and fight for the benefits they are entitled to.

This Remembrance Day please make an extra effort to, Volunteer with a service; distribute Poppies, or help a shut in get to a service.

Remember: A Veteran is A Veteran is A Veteran.
