  • Just this week it was announced that the body of an Unknown Soldier from the Royal Newfoundland Regiment would be taken back to Newfoundland to become their Unknown Warrior. In this first episode of Season 7 we look at the story behind this and the history of The Royal Newfoundland Regiment in the Great War and their Missing soldiers.
    The articles relating to the Newfoundland Unknown Soldier are on the Veterans Affairs Canada (www.veterans.gc.ca/en/remembr...) website and Commonwealth War Graves Commission (www.cwgc.org/our-work/news/un...) website.

    So glad I found your link. My grandfather fought on the front lines. I downloaded his war records and it's so sad to see all the times he got sick or wounded and was sent back to the front lines.

    One of the 5(-6 ) caribous is in the town were I was born Kortrijk, so I've known it forever. I always found it a most impressive memorial but only understood why it was there later on... A pity schools didn't go into the subject more and explained what it stands for.... Thankfully technology has moved on and we can now learn about so many things thanks to people like yourself that don't keep their knowledge to themselves but put time and effort into sharing it all in great podcasts and vlogs 👍🏼
