Remember and Give thanks...

Hi, its Nicole here.

I joined air cadets in September because I want to learn how to fly.  I flew with my papa in his little plane in the summer and I really liked it.

Me and my Aunt Lynn 

When I joined the cadets I didn't think about soldiers or veterans too much.  But I do now.  I thank them for the Canada I live in.

On Saturday, we marched through downtown Acton to the Cenataph along with veterans, RCMP, other military groups as well as Guide and Scout members (so yeah, my sisters were there too,  :(  )

Because I am a new cadet, I was asked to carry our wreath.  I felt honoured ( and a little nervous).  There were veterans watching and I didn't want to let them down.

My aunt Lynn came to watch with my mom and dad.  My mom says that she likes that our small town will close the main road (highway 7) for times like this.  My aunt Lynn loves the bagpipes, though I don't think I will learn to play those.

Lest we forget,

Nicole.
