Hi Andrew,

Thank you for your observations on my pictures of this cemetery, which
is dedicated to the memory of Canada's disproportionate contribution to
WWII in Europe. Thanks also for the additional information you've
provided on some of the regiments involved.

I hope that I have done justice to the contribution of your fellow
countrymen.
