    I read about this before, but I never knew the details. Once again you provided information I was unaware of. It must have been a chilling experience for all of Canada, but especially for the citizens involved. All I can say is frightening.

    Your blog should be required reading for anyone interested in how WW2 impacted individuals.

    Thanks so much. The only way I get new readers is by word of mouth, so I appreciate it when people tell their friends.
