I'm going to call my grandfather today and thank him for the great work he did training pilots in WW2. He was never really given the recognition he deserved.

why does everyone seem to forget about the korean war?

Did you take a moment to remember?

Thank him for me too :thumbsup:

Canadian deaths in Korean war: 516
Canadian deaths in WW2: 45,300

Thats probably why Canadians forget about the Korean war. All numbers aside, we should remember all those that fought for this country and gave us the freedom we have today.

In the past, I was more involved when I was in the army reserves. It is sad and fustrating, to see so many young Canadians take this day so lightly. It is not only a stat holiday- but a day to remember. Sometimes, I tink assimilation isn't so bad an idea.

Everyone likes to take a shot at the Canadian army but everyone forgets how much ass we kicked in Vimy. What were you doing when you were 17? Stories of how kids would want to defend their country so vigilantly that they would lie about their age are common. Just for a chance to serve.

amen baby



some shoppn perhaps....and probably some drinking at night

:)

Well, plus the Korean war was a bit of a debacle (not as much so as 'Nam, of course), and it wasn't quite the close-to-home threat that the WWI and especially WWII were.

Amen.

I appreciate the sacrifice our soldiers make every day of the year, not just on this day. Every day that we're out doing our shit, they're over in harms way fighting for us. God bless them and their courage.

I hate it when there are poppies just thrown on the ground. I may be young and immature, but this is one day that I highly respect and wish others my age do the same.

Can you even remember a day when you were once skinny?

Don't get too worked up - chances are most of them just FELL there. I usually go through a half-dozen every year, because they just vanish off my shirts or jackets. The little pins really aren't the most reliable attachments.

ive been at home all day because everything i planned to do today cant be done...because everywhere is closed lol

That's true. I usually just put it back through the end of the poppy, kinda like a bobby pin.

:haha:

He has a week to sit and try to remember, but i dont think he will be successful.
