It has been pointed out that a member of our Colour Party wore inappropriate medals during this Remembrance Day Parade. Our Seargeant at Arms was unable to be present for the Parade due to mobility issues but was at our Legion. As soon as the medals were seen by the Sergeant at Arms, the Colour Party member was instructed to remove them and never to wear them when representing our Legion. We do not tolerate stolen valour and this issue was dealt with on the same day.

Legion Member Cheryl Moore's grandfather served in World War I as part of the Canadian Expeditionary Forces. William James Taylor was wounded on June 1, 1916, invalided out and returned to Canada in May 1919. He died in 1942 and is buried at the Mt Royal Cemetery in Montreal, QC.
Cheryl made the trip to Belgium to experience the battlefields, the cemeteries, memorials and museums in remembrance of her grandfather and wanted to share some of her reminders of an emotional visit.
You can read more about Hill 62 (Santuary Wood) on the Veterans Canada website

In Ypres, Belgium there is a wreath laying ceremony and Last Post every evening at 7:00 at the Menin Gate in memory of all those who served in WWI, it is done every single day of the year. A very emotional tribute.
