Prime Minister Martin has the power to override the Attorney General’s persistent negative litigating and make an honest offer to the veterans and their descendants. He, however, apparently would prefer to fly to Holland to make grand statements of how valuable a contribution our noble veterans made in war times than do the right thing by them and settle this long and shameful lawsuit.
When next you stand solemnly at a Remembrance Day ceremony, remember these disgusting facts.
The Disabling of a Soldier,
The Story of George W. Langen
My father was just 20 when he was hit twice in less than 20 minutes as he and his fellows of the Cape Breton Highlanders attempted to ford a river by Rimini, in Italy, on September 28, in 1944. Their company had been dispatched to take a battalion objective, a truly aggressive and ill-advised action.
We learn the circumstances from a chronicle of the war entitled, The Canadians in Italy.
