Bruce ..
I was going through a bunch of old pictures yesterday and found a regimental picture of my fathers Artillery regiment take in 1940 in Trachadie New Brunswick..
He is in there according to a little arrow scratched into the picture..It is small and I will have to have it digitally enhanced and blown up to see any details..A nice unexpected find for me..He was a Bdr.as indicated on the back of the picture and ended the war as a Staff Sergeant..he was on 25 pounders..
