Geez my condolences. Hell of a job to be running the Black Gap amazing any of them made it back at all. The two Brit vet's in the second photo are both Royal Navy who served in the North Atlantic amazing individuals.

We've got alot of Canadian and British WW2 vet's living down here and every year that number grows smaller and smaller.
