  16. yes, thats right, its been ages since i read my book on vimy. I forget what Reg he was in, but im fairly certain (id have to double check with my grandfather) my great grandfather and uncle were in the 87th which in my book says that was the Grenadier gurads montreal. In Flanders fields the poppies blow Between the crosses, row on row, That mark our place; and in the sky The larks, still bravely singing, fly Scarce heard amid the guns below. We are the Dead. Short days ago We lived, felt dawn, saw sunset glow, Loved and were loved, and now we lie In Flanders fields. Take up our quarrel with the foe: To you from failing hands we throw The torch; be yours to hold it high. If ye break faith with us who die We shall not sleep, though poppies grow In Flanders fields.
  17. what battallion number was the black watch?

  20. Neither would my great grandfather, he would get quite angry if asked as well. He was 16 and 5 foot 6 when he left, by the time he got home he was 20, and 5 foot 9! were lucky, we still have his pay book and medical records from the 3 times he was in the hospital during (pneumonia, scabies, and trenchfoot) I believe he was in the 87th Which if i recall correctly, they were the battalion that led the charge at vimy.
  21. Uncle harry fell at vimy as well, my great grandfather made it through w/out a scratch.
