We will remember them.
The 100th anniversary of the Battle of Vimy Ridge was commemorated today.
It was a moving ceremony both modern and old.
12000 Canadian school children raised money and made the trip to Vimy. An equal number of Canadians old and young joined them.
Youth will remember them. As Prime Minister Trudeau said today – The torch has been passed.
The Vimy Flight flew over in commemoration. I have no doubt their web site will be updated in the near future.

We too should continue to research the aviation history of the First World War. Research, write about and continue to publish.
We too will remember them.
