It was very emotional.
By far one of the most well known battles in Canadian history. What I find most interesting about our role in WWI was how much we were feared by the Germans. They got it done when others couldn't and the Germans knew that and respected our fighting ability. I have a lot of admiration for what those men accomplished. I haven't been to Vimy Ridge but I had a similar feeling as you when I walked the entirety of Juno Beach last summer.
