Bernard FORSEY



There are many names mentioned in this letter to the editor for publication of who had landed on Canadian Soil. Where I had trouble making out a letter in a name or initial I referred to the names and Regimental numbers listed at the back of the book "Memoirs of a Blue Puttee" for clarification purposes only. There was one discrepancy and it is noted after the name in question. I trust this is okay. Enjoy and take care. Maurice Charette 7-31-2005
