It was […]. Feel free to share even if in Norwegian i am sure you understand the impact and reminder it would give the current generation in Norway. For your guidance with today being 80 years since Elwood Norman Ericksen lost his life over England , Lauren MacNeil arranged for a wreath to be placed at his grave.
The Canadian military attachee in Oslo was kind enough to place the wreath and meet with the family. He was handsome, brave and I think had much strength of character as well as a sunny personality. I believe they would have married. Many, many thanks to David Wold for his on-going and so very helpful research and assistance. The light burns so much brighter for all his contributions. The wreath was safely delivered this morning!
See attached photo. For some reason the ribbon looks quite pale in the photo but it is darker in person, like last year.
Let us never forget what Canada did and what those who got their training there contributed to the liberation of Norway. My understanding is that there was at least 7 nations that stepped into Norwegian uniforms to take part in the fighting for liberty.
Like to share with you the recognition from elected officials that Kaare Nevdal received on his th Birthday. I think is a nice tradition and hopefully a tradition that would be carried on by future elected officials. Honor and service , this case by Allied Forces, should be recognized now and forever.
