Gday
I have just come back from Europe where I attended a reunion of RCAF Marville France. MY dad was stationed there 64-67 and I had the wonderful privlege of living in a small Belgian village. We drove from the Franco -belgian border back to Amsterdam and on the way we stopped at the graveyard in Grossebeek to see the grave of my uncle Sergeant A.A. Smith of the Hastings Prince Edwards. I found in that graveyard a lot of (far too many) Maisonneuves.
Someone will rubbish me for this I am sure but tommorow is Rememberance Day (2005) and I am compelled to say that ALL separatists need to see them laying together in Holland. They voted in the ultimate referendum it seems to me!
