It is nice to talk to someone with so much in common as myself. Our uncles being murder by the SS. I still have a hard time researching about my uncle. I get very emotional sometimes, can't help it. I have been to Normandy three times now, with trip no. 4 in the works for Sept. 2008. On my last trip, I had the chance to visit the royal winnipeg Rifles Memorial in Audrieu. Your uncles name is there. I have a few photo of the memorial. I took a photo of the the back of the wall where the plaque was placed. This is where some of the men were shot. In one of the photos you can see a bullit hole in the wall. It was very emotional, to here some of the S.D.&G. Highlanders express their feelings after seeing where the men were shot. If you visit Veteran Affairs Canada/ Canadian Virtual Memorial, you will see a photo of your uncle, the photo is a bit weak but you can still make out his features. Also there are documents about him. Use this hyprelink to view his information. http://www.vac-acc.gc.ca/remembers/s...sualty=2060243 I hope this helps. If you want the photos I have you can send me an email and I will send them to you. Bye for now, Greg |
