The Battle of Amiens also saw the arrival of many Canadian #conscripts - among them 23 year-old Private Dewart Keir, who was killed in action with the 19th Battalion CEF on 8 August 1918. We will remember them.

💥Characterised by Gen. Ludendorff as “the black day of the German Army”, the 1st day of the Battle of Amiens set the tone for the last 100 days of the #FWW. Amiens was an astounding success, the largest one of the war so far for the Allies.

MND @AnitaAnandMP writes: "the desecration of this memorial is unacceptable and shameful." But after 17 desecrations in 5 yrs, apparently it IS acceptable. Can't think of any country in the world where a national memorial to sacrifice is so dishonoured. https://www.cbc.ca/news/politics/tomb-of-the-unknown-soldier-national-war-memorial-desecration-1.6538937
