Nova Scotia/Nunavut Command of The Royal Canadian Legion www.ns.legion.ca 5 Project Chairman’s Message As Chairman of this Veterans’ Service Recognition Book series, and on behalf of the membership of Nova Scotia/Nunavut Command of The Royal Canadian Legion, it is an honour to present this special anniversary edition. Not only is this our 10th edition (10 years), we are also recognizing the 100th anniversary of the start of WWI – August 1914. You will notice that many of the Veterans profiled in this edition served during WWI and we have included some articles featuring major battles in which these Veterans participated, which helped shape Canada’s image on the world stage. Also included is a profile of one of the most recognizable monuments in the world – Vimy Ridge. All of the books in this series are produced in an effort to honour, acknowledge and remember the lives and deeds of our Veterans. I offer my thanks to the Legion branches of The Royal Canadian Legion as well as the general public who continue to support these publications by contributing biographies and photos as well as through their generous support through donations and advertising. I would like to extend our sincere thanks to Fenety Marketing Services for their continuing support in the production of these books and together with NS/NU Command, we look forward to issuing our 11th edition in the Fall of 2015. If you would like to send us info on a relative of yours please use Veteran Information form at the back of this book. In Comradeship, Steve Wessel Project Chairman
