Service and sacrifice: Lethbridge Legion commemorates 100th anniversary of the poppy

  LETHBRIDGE This year marks the 100th year since the poppy was adopted as Canada’s lasting symbol of remembrance and, in Lethbridge the occasion is being commemorated with two different projects. The Royal Canadian Legion General Stewart Branch, in partnership with the Alberta Branch of the Last Post Fund, are partnering to ensure veterans’ commitment and service is not forgotten by future generations. The Last Post Fund’s Unmarked Grave Program provides permanent military markers for eligible veterans who lie in unmarked graves. Local directors gathered at the Mountain View Cemetery Monday, where several headstones have been installed recently, providing long overdue recognition of the military service of some of the members who are buried there.
