Dear all,
There are to be several celebrations in France this November 11. Most importantly France has invited veterans from all over the world to meet for this the 80th anniversary of the day the guns fell silent. For anyone able to attend these cerimonies, this will be the last time so many veterans can be seen together. I was told today that 18 vets from Canada alon plan to attend. I cannot imagine that Canada has more than 200 in all.
I am hoping to go if I can raise money to meet some of the vets there and hopefully interview them. I will be happy to file a report of the events if I can pull it together. Also I will include any details I learn about events if others are interested in going.
If anyone has ideas on how I could fund such a venture is encouraged to contact me.

Sincerely

Kirk Goolsby
