It
meant a great deal to me to have the opportunity
to visit this center. Given our time constraints,
I was unable to do everything, but I found
the displays to be very informative and
interactive. The beach and the cemetery
itself I found to be strongest message.
Seeing names of young men my age on the
plaques gave me a sense of pride, a pride
to be Canadian. These people selflessly
gave their lives to spark a flame of hope
for a world of peace. The greatest gift
a person can give is their life, and so
many gifts were given. Indeed we remember
the lives lost, but also the lives bettered
by these amazing individuals.
