Hi
Just a few lines to let you all know that my Wife's li'il brother (MCpl in the Reg Force Engineers from Pet) was one of the wounded.
He received a broken arm and multiple fragments to the right side of his body. He will be evac-ed to Germany for further surgery and eventual repatriation to Canada. No suprise as he was also lightly wounded a few weeks ago where he lost his Section Commander. He has been verbally commended for his actions that day.
Not bad for 29 days in-country, eh!!??
He's a good lad and actually wanted to not be sent home. He wanted to finish his tour with his fellow soldiers. Maybe forcing him into the Reserve Engineers so long ago, after watching him sit in my basement and watch my TV and drink my soda, wasn't such a bad idea.
regards
Darrell
