Lest We Forget - Volume 19 www.legionnl.ca 3 On Memorial Day, July 1, 2019 a new member was added to the Trail of The Caribou with the unveiling of the latest Caribou Monument in Main Brook, NL, memorializing 45 residents who served in the Canadian Armed Forces from the beginning of WW1 to the present day. The local residents wanted to do something special to commemorate the one hundredth anniversary of The Great War and those from their community who served. A committee was struck to make inquiries and do fundraising for this tremendous undertaking. Fifty thousand dollars was required and with contributions from the Department of Veterans Affair, The Royal Canadian Legion and local and former residents as well as many fundraising events the committee reached its goal and the Caribou Monument was erected and ready for unveiling on July 1st, 2019, thus extending the trail of the famous Caribou Monument all the way to the northern tip of the island, home of the Royal Newfoundland Regiment. Submitted by Ben W. Patey The Trail of The Newfoundland Caribou Extends Northward

Lest We Forget - Volume 19 www.legionnl.ca 5 Provincial President, Nathan Lehr presents a plaque to Veteran, Robert Grant, congratulating him on his 100th birthday! Robert was born in St. John’s on June 22, 1919. He moved to Corner Brook with his family when he was a teenager. He was 20 years old and working in the Company Store when the call for volunteers, to enlist in the war effort, was issued in 1940. Robert was one of the 212 who joined the second draft which consisted of young men from Western and Central Newfoundland. He left home from Montreal on Mother’s Day 1940 and boarded the ocean liner, The Duchess of Richmond, for Liverpool. One of the towns they were billeted in was Lesmahagow, Scotland. A close bond soon developed between the Regiment and the Town. In February 1942, the Regiment, now called the 166 (Nfld) Field Regiment, arrived in North Africa. By this time Robert was a Gun Sergeant on a 25 Pounder. By battle’s end, 24 Newfoundlanders had lost their lives. In the fall of 1943, Robert and his comrades were off to another campaign; this time in Italy. They were involved in battles such as the taking of Casino, where their unique skills at high angle elevation shooting was highly sought. Robert lost many close comrades during the war but none closer that his brother, Doug, who was shot down and killed over Dunkirk, France in 1943 as a member of the Royal Air Force. Another of his brothers, John, fought in the Royal Navy and was torpedoed several times. In 1945 Robert returned to Lesmahagow and married his fiancée, Anne Wardrop, whom he had met years earlier and kept in contact. They returned to Newfoundland and took up residence in Corner Brook where they raised one son, Ian. Anne passed away in 2002. Robert is a resident of the Veterans Pavilion in Corner Brook.

Lest We Forget - Volume 19 www.legionnl.ca 7 Woodrow French, a NL Legion member from Conception Bay South Branch 50, piloted the new Air Passenger Bill of Rights that was recently ordered into effect by the federal government. Woody has been fighting for passenger rights for nearly thirteen years and as a result of his lobbying the airlines will take more responsibility when it comes to things like tarmac delays, denied boardings, damaged and lost baggage and overall communication between passengers and airlines. Coming later are changes to dealing with seating of children under 14 and canceled or delayed flights. Woody believes that when you purchase an airline ticket you are entering a contract with the airline and they are responsible for getting you from point A to point B in a timely manner while treating you with respect, and if they break the contract they should compensate you. The first phase of the new regulations went into effect July 15, 2019, and while Woody agrees there are still details to iron out the bill will evolve over time and he is pleased with the overall changes. Woody is a veteran who has defended Canadian’s rights in the past and continues to defend our rights. Thank you, Woody. Legion Member Fights for Travelers’ Rights
