Rembrance Day Stories

This week, both Kate and Paul have some thoughts and stories from Remembrance Day. It's interesting to reduce the terrible statistics to individual people and the impacts on their families. Paul also has the backstory to the first and last Canadian WW1 combat fatalities. The first were four young midshipmen apprenticing aboard a British warship who died in battle in November 1914 and the last was within minutes of the armistice coming into effect.
