Wee kilted lad reviewing Canadian troops

This is really cute!

"A small Belgian boy waits for the soldiers of the Canadian Army returning from an offical engagement within a Belgian town (the wee lad is in a hand made Seaforth Highlanders of Canada uniform to commemorate the D-Day landings of 1944). As the troops pass by the young boy salutes his heroes and the 'CARING CANADIANS' respond.... Brilliant."

Though I have seen it before it's still cute!

And what a lovely rendition of O Canada!

Just like Trefor, I've seen it before but it still gives me goosebumps when the commander calls for the "eyes right".

Demonstrations of mutual respect conducted seriously and with dignity are almost always elegant, heartwarming and a pleasure to see.

That is so Canadian.

Shivers and damp eyes for caring.

I watched it this morning before work and got all misty, came home and watched it again just now with the same response! Good stuff.

Thanks for posting

I'd bet that seeing that young man there would have made those solidiers' day.

..and lots of them! I was not expecting that from the troops, so goosebumps and a great big smile when they did! Wonderful gesture from them, and from that great little kid.

Thanks for shearing!
