I recently visited with some Canadians down here in Texas. Very nice folks. They were here getting medical treatment.

Grandfather on my fathers side got a purple heart  :uhoh  As a spitfire mechanic because one fell on him and busted his knee up.  :cheers:  Still proud of him.

No boys in the air if it were not for those mechanics. The whole ground crew were just as important as the pilot who flew the/their plane.

it's funny how some forget.  ww2 was a real ww2.  most of latin america sent supplies or troops to help the war effort.  there were canadians, indians, mexicans, Filipinos and dozens of other nationalities giving aid.

It’s funny how some forget indeed...

1,079,162 + 30,314 and...

300 per day.

I’ve never forgotten these numbers (roughly speaking, since they vary by source).   

:salute

Considering the population of Canada and the size of their armed forces in 1944, it was a considerable contribution and sacrifice. Not to mention their efforts in the North Atlantic, North Africa and Italy, and the skies over Occupied Europe since the war started.

Regardless of how you count neither the US or Canada is even close to the no 1 spot when it come to casualties and suffering during WW2.
I dont see why it really matters though...

Canadians are great! Mind their own business and get along.

It's "little potatoe" I am worried about.
