Remembering Our Troops

11/12/2008

Here’s a video remembering the troops.  There are a couple of pics of my father in law in this clip, he is the bald guy in the transport. (Thanks Amy & Paul for making this clip.)

Names of the fallen Canadians (Afghanistan) can be found here and on the National Defense Site.

Pics from the front lines of Afghanistan

11/6/2008

As many of you may not know, my Father-in-Law was a soldier in the “War on Terror“. He was part of one of the first teams that went into Afghanistan. I can’t even imagine what really went on over there.

We’ve all seen the pictures on the news, of what goes on in a war, but here is a video that shows life on the ground, from the eye of a soldier. These are pictures from Princess Patricia’s Canadian Light Infantry. These guys were on the front lines.

Thanks POPS and the rest of the Brave Canadians that risked and are risking their lives in Afghanistan.
