Juno Beach and Francis Godon

Further to this post,
"The story of a Metis veteran: The Measure of a Metis Man"
more from his son at Dust my Broom; the man wears the uniform well:


I want to say that it was a great honor to be with my father on this journey back to Juno Beach. He has in the last 10 or so years been able to open up as to his experiences and trauma during the D-Day landing and the 11 months he was kept as a Prisoner of War. This trip helped to calm some of the demons that have haunted him through out the years...
To arms, citizens, when duty calls. Breaks me up.
