Or any armed forces, past or present, for that matter having their day of remembrance overshadowed by this fossil.
Yeah, if it was me, I’d have waited to avoid the distraction. But it’s not Don Cherry Day, it’s Remembrance Day. I guess they wanted to pull the bandaid quickly.

I tend to agree this was perhaps in the works anyway - his voice is gone, his takes are now unintelligible and they run the risk of this type of thing every time.
