My grand daddy served in Italy then in Nigmegan, Holland. He served with the Lorne Scotts out of Brantford Ont. As a boy I always knew he was in the army and asked a zillion questions. His only answer when I asked what he did, boy he was a super quiet man. Anyway, he said that he was helping to keep people safe, and make sure they stayed safe. Come to find out years what his unit had been actually doing. They were rousting the last hold out Germans that did not want to leave. They may not have wanted to leave, but they did. Lol. I have not thus far found out what he did in Italy. He passed and I wish I'd have just talked to him more, not necessarily about the war but, well you know.
Anyway, he's why I remember.
