'Soldier Son Returning From Overseas
Will Have Christmas Dinner March 15
Sgt. Mark Helesic, 27, ton of
Mr. and Mrs. Frank Helesic, Bri:
tannia road, who has been in train-
ing with the Canadian army in
Europe, .is expected home during
the latter part of next week just
in time for his mother's birthday,
Sunday, March 15. But to Mrs. Bele-
sic and to Mark, March 15 will
not only be his mother's birthday
but also Christmas day for the
whole family will sit down to
Christmas dinner with all the trim-
mings.
Why? The soldier son spent last
Christmas day in London; England,
and for some reason or other miss-
ed out on having his Christmas
dinner—a big disappointment to
him. He said so in a letter to
his mother who is already busy
seeing to it that her son will have
a Christmas dinner that will really
be one, even if it is on March 15.
This week she completed making
a big Christmas cake and by the
end of next week the family table
will be set for a real feast.
Since enlisting in the Canadian
Army in 1943, Mark has made his
mark as a soldier. With ten years
of service now in, he has but an-
other ten to put in which will grant
him retirement with pay at the
comparatively early age of 37,
While- overseas on a- special
training course he has been with
the Grenadier Guards located just
