As a former regular force soldier and a current army reservist my heart goes out to this soldiers family. The members that guard the tomb of the unknown soldier are usually reservists who volunteer on days off from their full time jobs or school to stand guard in honour of those who died before us. What a sad sad way to go. We are being told to not go out in public in our military uniforms... Imagine in our own country.
And as for the poster above derailing the thread blaming Harper, I have some very choice words for you but I don't want to get the ban hammer! This is not the time or for such ignorance.
