Veterans Affairs committee  Thank you very much. I really appreciate that.

Veterans Affairs committee  I don't really know. My dad never talked much about the military. We talk about military museums. I've been to the one in Mons, Belgium. It's probably the nicest museum in the world, and the smallest. How do I get them? I wrote books. I have books here. I'm writing all the time

Veterans Affairs committee  I'll send you copies. I only have one here. Whoever gets it will have to make one for everybody.

Veterans Affairs committee  I'll just go quickly. The First World War and John Bernard Croak, his book, where he's buried...airmen from Cape Breton who lost their lives in the war, and there are some from New Waterford....

Veterans Affairs committee  There are people who are not in the Book of Remembrance, and the list goes on. Yes, I'll send you a copy, but I can't send one to everybody there.

Veterans Affairs committee  I'm not really sure of the question. As I said before, I was too young for Afghanistan. I sit here and listen to everybody speaking. I lived in Belgium.

Veterans Affairs committee  In the first book I produced, I showed everybody who died—from all the graveyards—and then I went to a second book and I just produced the names of the people who were left out of the Books of Remembrance. Now, in the first book I say that Veterans Affairs took it upon itself to

Veterans Affairs committee  I had all kinds. I left them in the other room. Some of them I shredded. Some of them ignored my intelligence with the responses I had. The answer comes right at the last sentence—no, they shall not be remembered.

Veterans Affairs committee  Thank you very much. Just remember, I'm 82 years old.

Veterans Affairs committee  I'm sorry I took up so much time.

Veterans Affairs committee  This is the book I produced, and you can see it lists everybody who died, and the difference being the ones who are left out. To answer your question, I have no idea. I wrote to the Legion, I wrote to Veterans Affairs, I wrote to the Secretary General of NATO in Brussels, becaus

Veterans Affairs committee  My name is Jim McMullin. I'm 82 years old, and I served my country faithfully and honourably in a military uniform for 38 years: 17 in the ranks, 21 as an officer and the last 10 as a major. My position within the military was financial administration. My dad went ashore on D-Da
