Country: | Two Canadian soldiers killed, eight wounded in Afghanistan Well today we had a memorial service for the two men that were killed in Afghanistan, we had the ceromony over at Jefferson Armoury in Edmonton, we did a drill ceromony for them then, our RMC and his 2IC's each had a speach in respect to the two men, and after that we each had two roses to put on a shrine with the pictures of the two men, it was pretty emotional, especially because Corporal Gomez was in the 2PPCLI before he went full-time so I knew him quite well The Canadian Army - News - Headlines
