Thank you.
Thanks for your correction. Grandad passed away when I was three and now Grandma has followed. I dont have much to go on except stories that I was told when I was very young from Grandma. You have made me realize how much bigger Grandads experience actually was and that their were alot of men who have been through the same. You've put it in perspective so to speak.
I am learning on my own and with the help of people like you and Cliff, it is much appreciated. We have here in Ontario, Canada a museum that has restored a Halifax. My dad and Grandmother went to the unvailing. Dad took with him some of the files that Grandad had brought home with him after the war. The curator was interested in them and asked if he would donate them. Dad said no because they are to be left to me. I want to show my sons this stuff when they are older so they can also touch the past. Thanks again. Ken
