Two More Have Fallen

[Geoff Winnington-Ball (RIP)]

Two of our boys have fallen today, in Afghanistan. Their Iltis hit a mine - it is unknown at this point whether it was static or command-detonated. I'm presuming - and hoping - they were killed instantly. Three more of their compatriots were wounded in the same blast, apparently not seriously.

Please salute Sgt Robert Allan Short:




and Cpl Robbie Christopher Beerenfenger:




They join a long line of stalwart Canadians in the ranks of the White Battalion. They shall never be forgotten.
