This year marks the 100th Anniversary of the Poppy as a nationally recognized symbol of Remembrance. Camrose Legion poppy chair Adrian Zinck pins one of the iconic symbols (an important fundraiser for injured Veterans and their families) on Ragnar Gislason. Ragnar completed two tours of duty in Europe and has been a very active member of the Camrose Branch. He was a driving force behind the creation of the Camrose cenotaph project.

We can collectively do this by taking a break from daily living and pausing to deeply reflect on their sacrifice. Let us not forget the dedication of those who served and, thankfully, survived the likes of World War I, World War II, the Korean War and the War in Iraq. Remembrance Day is also an opportunity to express heartfelt appreciation to the brave men and women who continue to represent our free and democratic country through ongoing peacekeeping and emergency roles around the globe.
Pause. Give Thanks. Remember. Never Forget.
