September 2016 - 150th Anniversary Tour of the Grey & Simcoe Foresters Association. Perpetuates the 147th, 157th, 177th and 248th Battalions CEF.
I was awed by the stark beauty of the Menin Gate and will never forget the moving ceremony and the playing of the Last Post and the Rouse by the Fire Brigade buglers.
More than 54,000 names - it boggles the mind at the sacrifice.
