Remembrance Day 2014 Bény-sur-Mer Canadian War Cemetery
This is an original song I've written as a tribute to the men and women who have, and continue to serve our country. Pictures for this video are from a trip I took to Northern France to visit the battle fields along the coast. A sincere thank you to all veterans for the sacrifices you have made to keep peace in Canada and throughout the world. Especially to Charles Callas and Uncle Norm Spencer.
