Paardeberg

[Michael OLeary]

Here‘s to the 104th Anniversary of the Battle of Paardeberg to members and friends of the Royal Canadian Regiment, and to all those whose regiments provided soldiers and officers to the Second (Special Service Battalion) Royal Canadian Regiment.

Just returned from a dinner honouring the 104th anniversary of the Battle of Paardeberg.

Wide range of members and friends of the regiment in attendance, including a few who gratefully didn‘t share stories of my past. ;-)

Spent a while talking to this gentleman: Heath Matthews, you can see his well-known pic at
