Half-mast

[Jon Skagfeld]

OK, Alexander, you've presented archived material which purports to be correct. The sources are, however, media sources.

I still maintain, and have further confirmed, that in Canada, the proper military term is "half-staff".

Let's all not get into a pissing contest about the terms of reference; suffice it to say that you have presented your source material, I have presented mine.

Meanwhile, shall we all pause, at an appropriate moment, and reflect on just what happened at Vimy Ridge?
