48th Highlanders of Canada Memorial

[OperationPictureMe]

In Memory of our Fallen Heroes

The 48th Highlanders of Canada Regimental Museum is attempting to put a face to all those members of the regiment that were KIA or DOW during World War 1 and World War 11.

There were about 2000 soldiers that lost their lives and and the museum has photos of about 100 of them. Most of the photos are head shots and we would love to see them in kilts, but we will take what we can. If any of your family members served in this unit and did not return home from the war the museum would be thankful in getting a photo of him for their archives.

Here is a link to a YouTube video.

The video's title is "48th Highlanders of Canada Memorial for Remembrance Day"

Thanks,

Finding a photo of someone who died 65 years ago is hard. Once I have a name and a town I phone everyone in the town with the same last name. So far in the past week I have found 10 pictures from a W W II list of 300. World War I pictures will be much harder.

PS I have just returned to the Regiment as a volunteer at their museum after a 30 year absence. They now have to fit me for a kilt. This one will have to be larger then the one I wore 30 years age.

Best of luck on this project, OPM. Bless you for tackling this important work.

Funny how most of us have that same experience of not wearing the same size of anything that we used to 30 years ago!
