You know what I remember the most, the people who I know who didn't come back from Afghanistan or those who came back missing limbs and with hidden psychological injuries. I remember those who left part of themselves in a country a world away, those who will never be the same and whose lives will be forever impacted. Those people deserve remembrance as well.
The impact of the world wars is still long felt and it hasn't been that long. In fact if you are up in Edmonton I have a veteran who I would like for you to meet who would be able to set you straight
