A remembrance of my great uncle, Pte. Colin Dort from Guysborough County, Nova Scotia, a family with a strong military history. I never got to meet him, but am so proud of his ultimate gift to us and to Canada. Thank you Uncle Colin for your service.
A lifetime dream to visit your resting place is about to come true as I am booked to visit in Nov, this year (2023)

CORIANO RIDGE WAR CEMETERY Italy
CORIANO RIDGE WAR CEMETERY is 3.5 kilometres west of Riccione, a seaside resort on the Adriatic coast, and is reached by turning west off the main Rimini/Riccione road about 1 kilometre north-west of Riccione. In the town of Riccione is a sign leading to the Coriano Ridge War Cemetery. Carry on in the direction of Coriano until a 'T' junction is reached. Turn left and after a short distance the Cemetery will be found on the right-hand side.
The cemetery is permanently open and may be visited outside the working hours of the local gardening staff, but will be unmanned.
