Default Insomnia equals productive surfing

Hello Everyone,

It's been a while since I've visited the Royal Winnipeg Rifles Museum website, and having an insomnia night again, I visited a while ago .... whilst browsing the site for new information I found the guestbook and started browsing to catch up. You never know what you find in guestbooks

-Where I found this information:
http://www.mts.net/~rwpgrif/Rifles/RifMain.html

Personal Site:
http://home.cogeco.ca/~kallen14/JAllenWWII.htm

I read through much of the sites contents but am not finished, and gained a lot of really good and interesting details "of life" for some of the RWR's through training and D-Day plus ... Normandy fighting ... etc. Maybe some of you historians will like reading through "actions" details given. There really is a "lot" of true story here ...

There is mention of one of our 8 JUNE 1944 executed RWR POWS who was murdered with Uncle Eddie ...

SGT. JAMES ALLEN REID H/40798
(his enlistment number is also very close to Uncle Ed's )

I'm so glad EVERY time I find yet another family member of one of our Vets doing these things for their "loved ones" and appreciating them. That's only as is right ... I just STILL always feel so damned sad though. What great losses ...
