LETTER: Veterans deserve our thanks

I am proud to be part of Operation Legacy, in which members and graduates of The War Amps Child Amputee Program pass on the remembrance message to the younger generation.

I am proud to be part of Operation Legacy, in which members and graduates of The War Amps Child Amputee Program pass on the remembrance message to the younger generation.

As Remembrance Day is fast approaching, I would like to pay special tribute to all men and women who have served in Canada’s military, and especially acknowledge those who lost a limb or limbs while serving Canada.

I was born a left arm amputee and have learned to overcome this challenge thanks to programs put in place by amputee veterans of The War Amps. I am grateful for the work that amputee veterans have done in advocating and supporting child amputee programs. It is important that we remember the sacrifices that our veterans have made for us, and recognize the sacrifices of those still serving.

On Remembrance Day, Nov. 11, please take a moment to remember those who have and continue to serve Canada. 

Griffin Davie, 22
