    That was great. When I was in uniform, it was rare that a little guy like that would honor anyone in the military. Thanks for posting.

    Words escape me at the moment. The show of respect from that young lad was brilliant and the return "Eyes Right !" PERFECT !

    I always get emotional at the Rememberance Sunday Parade in London. As the youth contingents march past - The Scouts, Boys Brigade, Army/Sea/Air Cadets and others that I just can't bring to mind. Regardless of what is said about them, the next generation is standing ready, and able, to take the baton from our hands. God willing, they won't have to go through the privations of past generations. But if they have to, I have no doubt that they will and they will do it well.

    Regards

    Chas

    I don't know what Regiment that was but they had a Piper and they looked like Scots. Canada can be truly proud of them. It doesn't take much to show your worth.
