“The Great War”
CBC has played what may turn out to be a brilliant documentary this weekend in honour of Vimy Ridge.
The brilliant aspect of it is the fact that all the soldiers are played by their current day descendants. I would give money to have the chance to fill my grandpa’s boots in WWII, so I can only image how cool this experience had to have been.
My birthday is the 90th anniversary of Vimy Ridge. They had a beautiful memorial last night where they projected the names of every Canadian who died at Vimy on the National War Memorial.
It was beautiful.
