November 11, I too remember............................................. Four Schillemore boys, all BHCs, served as WW1 soldiers and are among the soldiers listed in the Canadian Archives data base. These are George Frederick, Alfred, Arthur H and Robert C Schillemore. Arthur and his sons George, William, Arthur Jr also served in WW11. George & Art Jr were part of the first Canadian Paratroop battalion. Arthur was my grandfather and George, my dad.... These men, unsung heroes, gave so much for all of us. May I grow in appreciation of their suffering for us. May we learn and remember them and all who gave their all for us.
