At this hour, 2300, (British Time) 69 years ago, members of the 1st Canadian Parachute Battalion started to cross the English Channel in their Transports, to be the advanced fighting force and the first Allied soldiers to land in enemy soil in France since Dieppe. May we never forget the sacrifice, courage and bravery these men had. And may we also teach our youth the lesson these men taught us, to be free, you must be willing to stand up for that freedom, fear is not an obstacle, it is a reality, courage is not an outstanding feat, courage and fear are intertwined, courage is simply feeling fear, and then, still moving onward, that is what made all these men courageous.......
