Thank You GEORGE: I've been in & around W.O.12 but so far, haven't been able to find the missing years. I'll talk to Christine JACK at UNB & show her this and see if we are missing a link or whatever somewhere. We have the early and late years of the War, but hardly any of the middle ones. Hope you will keep it all in mind during your travels etc. - CAL. ----- Original Message ----- From: "George F.
