This reunion

This reunion, 10 years after the end of World War II, meant a lot to these soldiers. Veterans of both World Wars, the men valued the opportunity to meet with others who had shared the same experiences and understood. They gathered at the cenotaph in Memorial Park to remember and honour their comrades who didn’t make it home but gave their lives for the community of Summerland and for Canada. “When you go home tell them of us and say, For your tomorrow we gave our today.” On Nov. 11, we will gather at the cenotaph as a community to remember those who fought for our freedom. We shall remember them.
