Re: "The Heroes of St Valery" - 51st Highland Division at St Valéry-en-Caux



Dear Iain:
I have not said so but many MANY thanks for keeping us posted on the valiant
51st and St. Valery.   There are some who do not know -- those who do are
amazed at the heroism and appalled at the lack of recognition.  You do us
proud to keep alive that memory.
I was delighted that you mentioned Diana Henderson as I am now just reading
Highland Soldier by the same .  I picked  it up at the Piobaireachd Society
as she deals with piping.

Aye,
Rory inToronto
