HomeMy WebLinkAboutThe Huron Expositor, 1984-02-29, Page 12Legion stands behind London legions actions vik The branch has been relatively quiet with the conversations mainly about the beautiful weather we enjoyed all of last week, although this weekend there has been a slight recession, with a storm forecast for the next two days (Monday and Tuesday). Last Saturday, the Legion Bowling team of Don Eaton, Al Smale, Don Wood, Gord McKenzie, Jack Eisler And myself partici- pated in the District Bowling tournament at Goderich. Our only claim to fame was a parking ticket and a couple of wins. Don't forget the stag euchre this Wednesday evening at 8 p.m. Most members and the public have read and heard reports of the controversy in London between the Legion and the city council concerning the cenotaph. The Legion as a whole while not condoning the name N 4ji'4�J1'N �. •. THE HURON EXPOSITOR, FEBRUARY 29, 1984 All calling is 100 per cent behind the action taken by the London and district, branches. To many members as well as non-mem- bers, cenotaphs represent the graves of the many who went down in ships, have no known graves and those buried in cemeteries in foreign lands. The cenotaph is regarded as sacred and should be considered so by all responsible persons in all walks of life. The remarks, made by -a commentator of a local radio station in London this past week were in very poor taste, I thought. 1 do not think the Legionror its members should hang their heads in shame for trying to do the things that are the very essence of our eitistence. Qur duty is to the veterans' widows and those who gave their lives for freedom but we can only have that freedom with a responsi- • bility for the rights of all persons concerned including the widows and relatives of those who still remember. At the going down of the sun and in the morning we will remember them. Gordon Scott, P.R.O.
