Canadians and bloody Easters

Pro Patria.

Update: The sixth soldier is identified, and more details are released on the attack itself.

Five of those killed were from the Royal Canadian Regiment, of which Prince Philip is Colonel-in-Chief; so, fittingly, the Prince was wearing the uniform of an RCR colonel at the Vimy Ridge ceremony Monday.

I didn't notice that when I watched the ceremony. A touch of class on Philip's part.
