Speaking of D-day Ceremonies, which of you guys will be attending June 6th in Toronto?
I will be.  ;D

Wow. It looks more like they are planning another invasion than just some ceremonies.

If any of you are around in Ottawa, there is a national re-enactment event at Notre Dame high school -

Re-enactors from all periods of history, including more than a few WW II re-enactors representing 1st Can Para, Perth Regiment, and Chaudieres.  I'll be one of the Calgary Highlanders in attendance.  Won't be doing much, just spectating myself, but looks like lots of good displays laid on for the Saturday - 10 til 3 pm.  On Sunday there will be a parade with many period vehicles and WW II veterans taking part.  Perhaps I'll see some of you there?

Private pilots who stray into Normandy air space during the 60th anniversary of D-Day next weekend will be shot down, French officials said yesterday.

I think the message is pretty clear   :fifty:

Does anyone know if there will be D-day ceremonies in the Calgary area? I tried to google it, but no luck.
