To the Editor:
As a member of The War Amps Operation Legacy, a group of committed young people dedicated to preserving Canada's military heritage, I would like to highlight a project we are currently undertaking.
In honour of Remembrance Day and this year's unveiling of the Bomber Command Memorial in London, England, members of Operation Legacy will be donating a War Amps "Military Heritage Resource Package" to their local libraries. The package includes the documentary The Boys of Kelvin High: Canadians in Bomber Command, which tells the remarkable story of the Canadian volunteers in the Second World War who flew in mighty bombers through enemy territory night after night, as well as the memoir Grandpa's War in Bomber Command. This is a personal account of the experiences of the late Jack W. Singer who served as a bomb-aimer in one of the most dangerous occupations of the war.
The memoir and documentary are part of The War Amps internationally award-winning Military Heritage Series, which tells the lesser-known Canadian wartime stories. They are available at a cost-recovery price by calling (800) 250-3030 or visiting waramps.ca
