LITTLE CURRENT—Each year the Royal Canadian Legion produces a ‘Military Service Recognition Book’ commemorating the service of our nations service personnel. Funds raised through the program are utilized to support various Veteran Transition Programs that in turn will assist veterans who suffer from various challenges they face in transitioning from a military life to a civilian life.
“We were pleased to present the NEMI Public Library with a newly released copy of the Ontario Legion’s Military Service Recognition Book XI (MSRB),” said Little Current Legion Branch 177 public relations officer Roy Eaton. “As the “Keepers of Remembrance”, Ontario Provincial Command is proud to publish an annual Military Service Recognition Book to identify and recognize many of our veterans who have lived, or are living, in the Province of Ontario. Veterans who have either served or are still serving in our Canadian Armed Forces, the Commonwealth or Allied Forces qualify for a submission to the publication.”
Comrade Eaton invites people to visit their local Legion Branch to obtain more information regarding this Remembrance program and, more importantly, to submit a story and photo of a veteran. “Everyone is welcome to submit a story, including veterans, relatives or friends,” said Mr. Eaton.
