Dear Editor
I am a member of The War Amps Operation Legacy, which consists of young members and graduates of the Child Amputee Program who are dedicated to preserving and commemorating Canada's military heritage by teaching younger generations about our nation's wartime history.
I have had the privilege to learn about Canada's military heritage and also know what it is like to live without a limb - a strong bond that I share with war amputee veterans. CHAMP was started by war amputee veterans and I want to give back to those who have given me so much.
It is important to remember our veterans and those who gave their lives because we need to ensure their sacrifices do not go unrecognized. It is also important because we want our future generations to carry on the legacy that our veterans have created.
I encourage all of you to learn more about Canada's history by means of The War Amps Military Heritage Series documentaries, which can be ordered at waramps.ca.
Crystal Young,
Operation Legacy Member
