A surprise ending to my summer! Thank you so much for taking the time out from your trip for this drive, to remember these ten men, comrades of my father who left the prairies of Canada and now rest on this Belgian coastal dune. If there are more stories of Coxyde Military Cemetery in your camera from your visit, and I do hope there are, I’ll be watching for them.
All in good time, my friend, all in good time.
