VETERANS WEEK CANADA 2013-FINDING LOCAL WAR MEMORIALS

Every town and city has a War Memorial in Canada. The names of the local men and women are engraved to honour their efforts. On trips for various reasons to locales near home, I always look for these monuments.
Here in Cambridge, Ontario in the town square there are several dedications to Canadians who served.


Honouring women who served is front and center......


On the insciption above the City of Galt honours the women who served. Cambridge includes the City of Galt as it is an almalgamated city now. In Cambridge, however, the various areas are still honoured. I bet some people did not know women served in the Navy!  So as we honour our veterans this week try to learn more about the service of people from your own area.
