Used them in Korea to.

Here is thr story.

On November 11 a armed man forced his way in a Toronto branch of the Legion and took off with the colection box. He got tackled by an 84 year old vetran in the parking lot and had to abandon his ill gotten gains. He did get away but nothing to show for than the embarasment of getting the p. beaten out of him by the 84 year old.

Well done, but have you chaps ever thought of having a rubrised membrane sprayed on. The same stuff that is used here in Canada to waterproof basments. It is verry strong and almost 1 mm thick depending on howmany coats. I have seen it and am very impresed with it and would use it to waterproof anything.

A moving story, here is an other one. After my return from Korea I was trasfered to the Belgian navy and officers school. I was in charge of a platoon of recruits and during infantry training we ended up near Ypre. I saw 2 couples there, one English the other German. As I speak both languages I sort of listened in. Then it dawned on me, both gentleman were vet. of WW 1 on oposit sides and at the same time. So I did introduce them to each other and played translator for the rest of the day. It was quite an experience and what they went through I had gone through some 40 years later. To top it all of my recruits dug up several WW 1 remains.

I turned all my pictures of the Korean war over to the Belgian Army archives and copies to the Belgian Korea Veteran ass.
