Congratulations! Job well done.
Also, would like to mention if anyone has read the book -
A Regiment at War by Strome Galloway?
I came across it today, it is "The Story of The Royal Canadian Regiment 1939-1945. First published in 1946 under the title "55 Axis". Very interesting.
What does 55 mean all you Royals?

The tactical number of The Royal Canadian Regiment was "55"
55 Axis
The route followed or more properly, the axis of advance" of units in the field was picketted along the course with signs bearing the tactical number of the unit or formation concerned. The tactical number of The Royal Canadian Regiment was "55".
Must read the book.
Have a good night!
