A cat with a royal name? Cool.

[svandamme]

Very cool, I am sure it's a bit more reliable than the originals.
That war ruined a generation of Canadians, like other countries. My Grandad and his three brothers served two are still there. Grandmother had three brothers serve, two came back one of which was hospitalized the rest of his life.
Great uncles wallet with a bullet hole.

Starship Enterprise

The starship Enterprise, or a reasonable facsimile thereof, has landed in Vulcan, Alberta. You can have your picture taken dressed as a Star Trek character, buysouvenirs, and otherwise disport yourself in Trekazoid splendor in Canada. There's a plaque on the ship in English, Vulcan, and Klingon!

You did that for me and the photos you had taken were much appreciated by me and brought tears to my dad's eyes when I gave him the photos.
Since that time several of my family memebers have visited the cemetery.
Thank you again for doing that for us.

[svandamme]

Very welcome !

[svandamme]

So 2 pelicans already, my memory isn't what it used to be , lol..

My grandfather and his BIL served there together, as ambulance drivers. Though my uncle was the sweetest person you ever met, my grandfather was frequently bitter and nasty. My dad was the exact opposite of my grandfather. I’ve always wondered if his WWI experience was the cause of his behavior.
