Today, Vimy Ridge Day, we honour the sacrifice of

Today, Vimy Ridge Day, we honour the sacrifice of three Okanagan soldiers who bravely fought and fell in France. This battle on April 9, 1917, became a cornerstone of Canadian identity after the First World War ended in 1919. That identity was paid for in blood, sweat, and scars by men from across Canada. Visit www.okanaganmilitarymuseum.ca to learn more.
