The War Brides

Yes, tens of thousands married Canadian soldiers during the war, coming over here after the war in groups. Some of these have organized a train trip back to Pier 21 in Halifax, where they all landed. They're arriving right now as I type this, with a military Guard of Honour and band... and it's being shown on CTV Newsnet. Catch it if you can! These old dears are wonderful to see.
