Thanks for taking time from your personal life to spend a warm autumn afternoon in the sun photographing old trucks, tracks and tents. Your sacrifice is noted (wink). Did you find refreshment at the mess truck?

Realistically, that is the wrong era of Canadian flag. It ought to be a Red Ensign, which resembles the modern-day Ontario and Manitoba provincial flags. Although the Maple Leaf replaced the Red Ensign a generation and a half ago, there are still many people who are angry at the thought.

The flag might be wrong, but did you notice that the Allied Star is crooked? This was a common practice with the Canadians who did not was the American style star on their vehicles.

BTW: Great photos and report.

Regards Rick.
