That commercial makes me physically ill. Even if you aren't immune to the cheezy phoniness of the whole thing, it's still a company exploiting Dieppe to sell cellular phones.
I might watch this on Friday if I'm home. I read a book on Dieppe when I was kid, and I was shocked that they had a guy who was Royalty running things. Now I'm older and I know more about the class system in the British Military, but it still makes me angry. That guy shouldve been the governor of the Gambia, not planning a major military operation using his 'subjects' as cannon fodder.
Dieppe is probably the best example of why those wars were a waste, esp from a Canadian point of view. Prince Louis got his comeuppance though, from an IRA bomb.
