Default Finally some info.

Hi everybody, I finally got in touch with a WW2 tanker buff up at Borden. He told me that my uncle was definitely in the Ontario Regiment. He said that back then and even now, a lot of members of that regiment just called it Ontario Tank, hence the confusion. He did go in at Juno Beach on D-Day and his Regiment fought in the battle for Caen. Thanks for all your help everybody, I will post a picture of my tribute when I am finished it. Just one last thing, my uncle keeps telling me every time that we talk that he is not a hero, he just did a job. He says he did not shoot anyone and he came back without a scratch. On the art work I wanted to write " A true hero not only goes into battle and kills, but also gives 6 years of his life for his country and family. You are truly a hero to me". Please give me some comments as to whether it is too corny. It is from the heart. Thanks again
