Sadly, only one member of the group of 33 signallers who went to Hong Kong is still alive: Gerry Gerrard, from Victoria. He is a fine gentleman and we couldn't ask for a better representative of our now gone very special members of our families.

Remembrance Day 2017
For the first time, my wife and I attended the Remembrance Day ceremony at the National War Memorial in Ottawa. We also laid a wreath at the Hong Kong Memorial Wall on behalf of the families of Royal Canadian Corps of Signals men who fought in the battle of Hong Kong in December, 1941.
