H'ktory comes Those who,think'that history is dull will have a chance to see otherwise Wednesday night, November 17 at Memorial Hall. Theatre Passe Muraille, the group that first came to national attention with The Farm Show about Huron county farmers, here deals with the anger of Huron county farmers and farmers from other -parts of the -province back in 1937 that led to the abortive 1837 Rebellion under William Lyon Mackenzie. The show is called 1837: The Farmers' Revolt. It will be the second time the, -show has been performed in Memorial Hall but the first for public consumption. The show was rehearsed on the stage there in 1974 when the Hall was still out of use. It went on to Toronto and other locations and won praise from the critics as the best Passe Muraillc show yet. alive It later became a compelling television show. The play tells the story of the frustration of the farmers that the colony was run by a small clique of rich families in Toronto called the Family Compact. The frustration grew because of poor roads and lack of schools until the farmers becantse desperate and led by men like Mackenzie and Col. Anthony Van Egmond of Egmondville, they finally plotted to overthrow the government. Instead, on a snowy Dec. 7, 1837' the rebellion flopped and several of the leaders, including Van Egmond were captured, He later died in jail and two of his comrades were hanged. Tickets for the show arc $3.50 for adults and $2,50 for children and arc available at The Standard or may be reserved by calling 523.9646. Few takers yet for council vacancies Candidates for positions on Blyth village council and Public Utilities Commission vert not exactly jumping out of the woodwork at the Blyth village ratepayers mHaeetill.ng held Tuesday night at Memorial One by one members of the present council and P.U.C. made their presenta- tions to the 20 persons present and announced their intentions and vacancies appeared but no one seemed anxious to fill them. Councillors Bill Howson and Frcd Carson confirmed that they would not be running in the Dec. 6 municipal election. Councillors Helen Gowing and Con Van Vlict announced they would be running. P.U.C. chairman Jim Howson said he would be running. Reeve Robbie Lawrie said he did not intend to run at this time but did not rule out changing his mind. Following the presentations from coup- cillors Clerk -treasurer LarryWalsh, who chaired -the Meeting rolled.. on anyone interested in "sc'king election to come fcirwarcl and say a few words. There were rio takers Nominations open Nov. 11 and close at 5 p.m. Novi 15 (Monday.) One arca where there will no doubt be an election is for the position of school board trustee, Blyth will be in a neer school district next year along with East Wawanosh and Morris township rather than the. old district with Hullett, McKillop and Clinton which had two representatives. It means John. Elliott will have a new territory to fight in and already Wilfred Shortreed, a former chairman of the County Board has said he plans to contest the position. Mr. Elliott in his report on school board activities pointed out that there is a lot involved in the school board work since there is a budget of $18,428,000 to be administered. As chairman of the education committee, the finance commit- tee and a member of the salary negotiating committee, he said, he has attended about 100 meetings in the past year. Dealing with the questiopn of high administrative salaries at the board offices, Mr. Elliott said that the ground rules for what the pay schedule had to be were set down originally by the Ontario Ministry of Education. Of the 28 boards in the province, he said, Huron ranked 24th in salary paid to its director, Its superinten- dents, he said, ranked 21st. Reeve Robbie Lawrie in reporting on county council activities noted that there had been two votes on regional government in the past term, with it being voted dov.n 40.13 and 40-15. He predicted there would be no regional governntent in Huron for many years to conte unless there is a real change in the composition of county council. Councillor Frcd Howson reported on the progress of the official plan noting meet1ns will be held in the neer year. He reported that 18 new homes permits had been • issued in the past two years. Councillor Carson reported on the complicated Senior Citizens Housing story ending with word that construction is supposed to begin soon but that one more hassle is still going on as to.who is going to pay for the 011 needed to . put the Queen Street. lot into condition. At present the Ontario Housing Corporation is trying to'get the village to pay for it but the village refuses. . Councillor Gowing reported that con- struction for sewers is scheduled to commence April 1, 1979 with an average cost to a home owner at 5147.78. Councillor Van Vliet reported on recreation improvements including renova- tions of Memorial Hall auditorium, the Lions' Club's new bowling green, a proposed tennis court at the school and the new arena. He thanked the Horticultural Society for its work and also the Minor Sports Commitee. Commissioner Howson said the P.U.C. had been working at updating present services in the village and laying new Hydro lines and services underground to make the village look better and prevent storm damage. He gave the bad news that with Ontario Hydro wanting a 32 per cent increase local Hydro bills will have to go up and water bills too will be rising. He asked that anyone planning a new building or addition to an old one give the P.U.C. better notice so that the proper supplies can be ordered to service the project. There were few questions from the crowd. Former Reeve Borden Cook suggested that since Centennial Year was coming up those councillors who were considering stepping down should instead stay on through the Centennial. Money items separate School Board, elementary teachers The Fact Finders report into negotiations between the Huron County Board of Education and the branch affiliate of the Elementary School 'feather's cniploycd by the Board was released last week. According to Fact Finder lan Hunter of London a wide range of items in the new contract have been: agreed to by both parties but .there arc still six outstanding areas in question. The matters In dispute arc allowances for principal of schools for the trainable retarded, allowances for vice 'principals, the maximum number of sick leave credits a teacher should be allowed to accumulate, an appropriate formula for Board financing of the Staff Improvement Fund' and the issue of accumulation of funds from year to year,- cost of living allowances and finally the method of costing. "Front this list," Mr. Hunter notes in his report, it is apparent that the unifying feature of the matters in dispute is that all are money or potential money items."— "Underlying the current impasse is the teacher's expressed dis-satisfaction with the total amount of money the Board has offered," the report notes. "The teachers -contend thatitis inadequate and, while they arc prepared to defend the logic of the positibn they have adopted in respect of each particular item in dispute, and are prepared to 'consider variations in the .amount of money allocated to one as oppose to another, nevertheless, at bottom, they contend that the total amount of money offered is inadequate and hence no amount of juggling or re -allocation will avail." For its part, the Board emphasized that they have traditionally made their offer to. teachers in ter 7s of a percentage increase over p specifi.i base calculated at a fixed date. i'he Board has then left the teachers free to divide the money as they sec fit, subject only to the Board's right to veto the final grid, .essentially to determine that minima and maxima on the gride are reasonably consistent with other counties, and, in the case of minima, adequate to' attract new teaching staff. "This method of proceeding proved satisfactory in previous negotiations," titer report says, "The Board's offer, which the teachers rejected on October 7 involved an eight per cent increase over the base cost (calculated as of March, 1976) plus a 1.7 per cent guaranteed C.O.L.A. clause. The Board contends that its offer is equal, in precentage terms, to that offered to the secondary school teachers and, by a wide margin, accepted by them (although, it was conceded that it may produce a different total dollar figure at any give stage on the two grids because of past differences in elementary and secondary grids.)" "I have no doubt that the prior settlement with the high school teachers has had a pronounced effect on both parties' positions," Mr. Hunter notes, "confirming the Board, in their view, tha their offer was reasonable one which, had it been recommended by the negotiating committee (as the secondary school negotiating committee did) would have been accepted by the membership. On the teachers' side, they genuinely believe that they ha%e adopted a logical, fair position on each issue, and they fall to see why their negotiating position should be prejudiced by what they regard as an inadequate prior to settlement with another bargaining unit." Mr. Hunter terms the teachers' position as "understandable but unrealistic." "I accept that the Board has historically maintained a certain relationship between the elementary' and secondary school panels, and that it is legitimately concerned with parity. Of course, settlementsbetween the two panels need not be identical, either in terms of total cost to the Board, total dollars at comparable grid positions, or 'even percentage increases," he said. "Some disparities are inevitable and, to the extend that they reflect 'different priorities (cg. fringe benefits vs. salary) adopted and emphasized by the different negotiating committees, perhaps even desirable."

WAYNE GRUB BY BILL SMILEY An English poet (Browning?) asked a rhetorical question years ago: "What is so rare as a day in June?" The obvious answer is "Nothing." Maybe so. A day in June in England on which it is not raining is a rare thing indeed, and something quite fine. The world is green and soft and effulgent with the sights and scents of flowers, But the sentiment hasn't much meaning to a Canadian, A day in June usually means a heat wave and mosquitoes., Soggy armpits and an irritating whine in the bedroom, Making much more sense to a Canadian would be: "What is so rare as a day in October?" I don't know about you, but for me, there is nothing on God's good earth to equal a golden October day, when the air is as clear as the thoughts of a saint, the land lies fallow, and the wild, free honk of the goose sends the chills up the spine. In the West, the poplars shimmer with their burden of gold coins, In the East, the Master Painter has got drunk and is splashing unbelievable colours across the landscape. Mother Nature has delivered all about. It is a time of dying, the fruit of her womb, and is still when life flares up in all its feminine, lying back and suckling splendour, briefly but brightly, her children, spent but resting. before going quietly and with She has not yet done her dignity, to the grave. transvestite bit and changed into Sometimes all these things the clothes of Old Man Winter, come together on a Canadian quite another kettle of fish. Thanksgiving Day. What is so Un the golf course, the turf is rare as a day in June, indeed! still green and springy, and it's Give me ,an October Thanks - almost a pleasure to lose a ball in giving, with the yellow sun a heap of fallen leaves, filtering through the wild ecstasy On the bay, the water is a blue of the maples, and the water and so intense that it shouts back in sky so blue it hurts, and I'll give mockery to the deep, calm blue of you a glimpse of glory. the sky. Come in from golf, or fishing. Bill likes October Around the potholes and sloughs, there is the tense thumping of the heart as the ducks head in to land, or take off with a suddenness, in morning, that makes the adrenalin pump, On the rivers, . wrapped like Eskimocs, the anglers tease for that last, lurking rainbow trout that will go ten pounds, There.is a thump of leather on leather as the football heads for a climax, And there is the headiness of track meets, where the young push every sinew to jump farther, run faster. There is the ritual raking of the leaves, and the jumping in the leaf -piles by the little folk. And, if your town hasn't passed a stupid by-law against the burning of leaves, there is the sheer joy of that, Let me hesitate a moment there, The burning of the leaves is just as symbolic as the planting of the first seeds and bulbs in the spring. It should be a time for neighbours to be out, chatting quietly and raking the flaming bits back onto the pile. A time for children to stay up late and poke the bonfire with sticks. It should be a time for incantations, We are cremating our beloved, with tenderness and regret, but without sadness, We know they will live again.

This sounds completely hedonistic. Ancl it is. I've paid my dues in suffering and frustration. I'd like to sit back and watch my belly grow (which it won 4), and tell my grandsons tall tales, and chuckle at the absurdity of the human race.

Perhaps most. we should be thankful for the fact that remembering gets harder every year. Each Remembrance Day we hear people bemoan the fact that Remembrance Day doesn't seem to mean much anymore. But with the generation now. in the schools whose parents can't even remember the war, hour can it mean as much as it did 20 years ago when the pain and sacrifice of the vrar was still so fresh in people's minds. Thank God it isn't. "Thank God we have gone through a whole generation without a major war robbing our country of its youth. Still. Remembrance Day is important. It is important to remember who gave their lives but it is important for an even more imporant reason. Only be remembering the horrors of war. by seeing the nannes of people in our own community vrho were sacrificed. can we bring hone to our younger generation the fact that war is not just a glamorous game, but a sick. horrendous waste of human and natural resources. Think of all the good men and women who were killed in the last war. 'Think of the contributions these people could have made tot their communities, their countries. their world if they had not be struck dov.ii, many of them in the prime of life. This. is the tragedy of v.ar. This is the reason that Remembrance Day is so important. not so much to remember past v:ars. but to prevent future ones. We need an election Nominations open this week and close Monday for municipal offices in all area municipalities. Hopefully. by the time the nominations close Monday night, there will be a wide variety of people offering themselves for the positions open. We need an election in every municipality. We profess to believe in democracy but too often we arc happy to see people put into office by acclamation. That just doesn't work. It may be all right this time or that. but it's a poor substitution for a good election. Can you imagine the Prime Minister of Canada being put into office by acclamation? Hardly. Yet in each of our communities the local reeve is just as important as the Prime Minister. The reeve and councillors are the people who can make or break a municipality through their judicious efforts. We need the best available. If the best people aren't running. then we should go out and try to influence them to run. Only the cream of the crop will do in government. We don't need to create problems for ourselves by putting incompetent people in office. So if you know someone who should be running, do your best to convince that person. young or old. man or woman, to offer himself for office. in the long -run, you'll be doing yourself a favour. Letter to the editor We arc well into the 76.77 school year now. The evidence of this is seen each school day, morning and afternoon, when the large chronic yellow school buses use our highways to transport our children to and from school. The precious load these ve- hicles carry is the most important thing in most of our lives. Yet we. as motorists, still endanger their lives. It scenes even in our remote County, free of the large type hustle and bustle, we still have most motorists rushing on our highways, many times to go no where in particular. over the speed limit. They find it annoying to wait behind a school bus taking on or discharging our children. People, who are annoyed . at being slowed down by a school bus or any other slow moving vehicle on the highway (including sight seeing motorists), get frustrated especially when on- coming traffic leaves not quite enough room to pass this dodling vehicle. Dangerous chances are then taken to get around the vehicle sometimes causing head on collisions. people being forced off the road, and even passing on the right (driving off onto the shoulder). Any of these situations involving the slow vehicle being overtaken could result in an accident. If it was a school bus, think of the little people who would be injured or killed. One of them may be your son or daughter. In an effort to reduce the possibility of a school bus accident, we encourage all motorists to think of the precious cargo carried by the school bus. PLEASE don't take your frus- trations out on our children. Thinking along these same lines, but now to the school bus driver, we urge that when possible, thinking of safety. you take a few seconds after a pick up and drive onto a hard shoulder to let any build up of traffic pass in an attempt to prevent accidents by frustrated motorists. I hope it is understood by the motoring public that when a school busalternating red lights are flashing. and the school bus is still moving, the lights are a warning to you that the bus is about to stop. Your' may pass carefully at this time. !ou MUST STOP when the lights are flashing and the school bus is STOPPED --- anywhere. R. W. WILSON #3629; COMMUNITY SERVICES OFFICER. People have always been cynical about the honesty and integrity of politicians, but it seems to have reached a height since the Watergate affair in the U.S. showed a man like Richard Nixon who had always pretended to b e so moral to be a crook. We see this cynicism in the U.S. where neither Geral Ford or Jimmy Carter were able• to convince the American people they were what they claimed to be: honest, dependab le men. Carter, particularly, because he was unkown to most people and because of his— much -publicized religious views, was under constant,, scrutiny by people seeking to find his feet made of clay. Politicians don't help them- selves of course by appearing often to deceive people, to change their positions on stands, to refuse to answer questions of the press. How can we trust people who do such things? Why, if they are as honest asd they would have them believe, would they do such things? 1 got to thinking about that question the other day as I recalled my own difficulty in trying to pin down some local politicians on the matter of Politicians are always in the spotlight whether or not they would be running for office again. Now I know the people personally and they are good, honest people. 1 would trust them a long way. Yet a couple of months ago many of these people were letting it be known in no uncertain terms that they would not be seeking re-election. As nomination day drew closer some changed their minds and said they would run. some waffled even more and wouldn't say what they were going to do. Why, 1 wondered, are they playing these political game? Why are they destroying their credability? Then i began thinking what it would be like to be in the same position politicians often do. What would you do, for instance, if someone asked you point blank for your opinion of your next door neighbour, or your aunt Sue. Now if you're talking privately to a close friend you Wright admit that you really can't stand the person in question. But if you were in front of a room of people, or going to have whatever you say put on radio and television and covered in the newspaper, you're likely to be more careful about what you say. If you don't say the same thing you would have told your neighbour, then you're being dishonest. if you do, then you're hurting someone's feel- ings and not really doing any good by it. You'd be criticized either way. It's simply one small example of how a little thing ordinary life can become a major thing when you're in the spotlight of politics. We all make mistakes. We all say things we wish we could take back. We all change our minds. The difference is that when we make a mistake or change our minds there are relatively few people who know about it. But when you are a politician, every word is likely to be' heard by milllions. It's a heck of a responsibility to think about every word, to judge how people might react to your every phrase. And if in thinking about what you're going to say you look hesitant, then the television cameras and radio microphones will likely make you look either "slow" or shifty, not wanting to get yourself "caught" in any position. It's easy for us to sit back and criticize and judge men and women in public life on the little glimpses of—them we see on the National news or their quotes in the newspapers but we have no idea of what they are going through. The oldlndian saying about not criticizing someone until you have walked a mile in his moccasins is still one of the wisest things ever said.

JEAN KNOX UNITED CiIURCH, AUBURN Soldiers are rewarded by the Victoria (rocs for great couragc.on the battlefield. Men and women who set out to give a good account of themselves during a lifetime do not really impress one as made of the heroic courage that ends a V.C. • 'i'hey do not appear to have the self-discipline or the steel nerves to act with a cool head under hopeless circumstances. A lifetime is difficult to estimate by any yardstick and to measulse courage, determination,-res6urcel'ulness and bravery over 90 years is impossible. Yet it is often suggested that real couratte and bravery is the quiet, inconspicuous and tenacious hold on high ideals, affirmation and inspiration to all around, a life of unanswering commitment to the good in man and hope that we all may make the world a better place to live in, Our tines and our society put so little value on everyday courage to .smile under trying circumstances, or to be positive or affirmative rather than to whine, complain or to seek attention. Self-discipline on the battlefield or over a lifetime cannot be that much 'different. Communities could at one time see each ,family with a cross to bear. One fancily had blindness._ or deafness to contend with.. Another a retarded child or a cripple. Another had an alcoholic and so forth, Folk say: life as a challenge and even i1' it v. ere all uphill they could muster a trace of a smile. Heroism was resident in every town and village. Our current heroes are sold to us. We used to find them in David facing Goliath. St. George and the dragon or a .loan of Arc. ow v.c are sold a Bobby Orr or Olympic greats. Astronauts and Superstars rob daily life of its rightful heroes. it is a dating person v. ho v; ill point out a village resident as a heroic man or woman. Two men in v.h11c coals may call on yOU to lake a lief. • type of residence'. Are towns and villages not Able to claim a hero or two equal to any in the past? it is hard to convince oneself even that V'.e rub elbows v.'ith heroic people every day. Remembrance Day should mean that v.e grasp the torch handed to us and to take up the quarrel v.ith the foe. It means our hands and our quarrel. It is a challenge to every man, woman and child. Life requires a sense of the heroic in living simple every -day lives. We meet heroes and heroines on any street any day though they wear no medals. Heaven help us if v.e tinct no one in our midst with a measure of the heroic of a lifetime.. Recreation committee hires arena managers The Blyth .

And 1 wasn't very proud of you Ann, for agreeing with her. I'd expect something like that from the male chauvinists, but in this day of Women's Lib I thought all enlightened females would rejoice when nuns were permitted to wear what they like. The hyposcrisy of RN's argument really got to me, She jost loves to wear the RN cap and uniform she worked so hard to get, but note her key words -- "when on duty." She'd scream like an eagle if her superiors insisted she attend a public event in her uniform. Yet, with cruel inconsistency she doesn't hesitate to insist that nuns wear their "duty" dresses day and night. Nurses should be treated as people. And so should nuns. A People Person DEAR PERSON: 1 agree that nurses and nuns should be treated as people, but the nun who wore the habit was immed- iately recognizable as the special person she was. Your contention that a nurse would scream like an eagle if she Mrs. Hallahan dies MARY HILDA HALLAHAN Mary Hilda Hallahan died in Wingham and District Hospital on October 31, 1976 following a lengthy illness. She was 70 years of age. She was born in Culross township, the former Mary Hilda McCormick and was married on June 26, 1935 at Sacred Heart Church, Tceswater to Dan Halla- han. She is survived by two daughters, Mrs. Lloyd (Mary Lou) Aubin, Goderich and Mar- garet, London; three sons, Frank and Joe of Blyth and Tom of Belgrave, three granddaughters and five grandsons. One daughter Catherine died at birth in 1943. Also surviving are one sister, Miss Kate McCormick, Teeswat- er and one brother, Donald RR 2, Wingham. A brother Andrew and a sister, Lucy Lamont predeceas- ed her. Mrs. Hallahan was educated at Holmes school and was a member of the Catholic Women's League of Blyth and the Blyth Women's Institute. The funeral service took place on November 3, 1976 from St. Michael's Church, Blyth with Father J. Hardy P.P. officiating. Burial took place in St, Michael's Cemetery, Morris township. Serving as pallbearlers were Mike Hallahan, Bill Hallahan, Jim Sterner, Maurice Hallahan, (all nephews) and Gerald Fitzger- ald and Bill McCormick, nephews.

DEAR ANN LANDERS: What docs a 17 -year-old girl do when she is everybody's friend and nobody's sweetheart? I'm definitely not a tomboy. 1 dress and act like any other girl, I'm not overweight, disfigured or ugly. know I'm lucky to have such solid friendships with so many great guys but I'd trade them all for one dude who considered me his girl instead of a "pal," How can 1 turn one of these brother -sister relationships into a romance? I'm sick of giving guys advice on how to settle their love problems and letting them cry on my shoulder, Got any words of wisdom? If this keeps up, I'll be - Always a Bridesmaid and NevcS a Bride, DEAR ALWAYS: Hang in there and don't become discouraged, Doll. Keep giving them your shoulder. One of those dudes is bound to notice that it's soft and feminine. Then he'll discover the rest of you. Remember, love is friendship that has caught fire. Be patient. Time is on your side. DEAR ANN LANDERS: I'm .a 16 -year-old who reads your column and rspects your advice. I'm not bad -looking but my teeth have given me an inferiority complex, They are very dark, almost brown, because of some medicine 1 had to take when I was younger, 1 hate to smile. I've tried every brand of toothpaste on the market but nothing helps, I even experi- mented with kitchen cleanser which was very stupid but it just goes to show how desperate I am. Is there anything that can be done to help me? No Smile DEAR FRIEND: Probably; Many dentists have obtained good results with the new composite plastics which they paint on the discoloured teeth. This procedure is not permanent but it may last anywhere from six months to two years and then can be applied again. Note to readers: Please don't write to me for additional details.

'Vs Show Biz Peter Kent new on The National BY VONNI LEE The 'charming chap next door' has been replaced. Beginning November 15, Lloyd Robertson's spot on The National will be taken .over by Peter Kent, who though not exactly a household word, is no stranger- either to Canadian television viewers, Peter Kent has been in the reporting business for 12 years. He was formerly with the CTV network, the studio's Lloyd Robertson call home. Kent was Montreal bureau chief for that network from 1967 until 1970 when he covered the October crisis. He was then transferred to London where he reported news from over 'ome and in 1974, he became part of the CBC news special unit. Last year, he was named winner of the ACTRA award as best Canadian newscas- ter. Kent begins The Natinoal with a salary of $60,000 the first year, to he increased the second year. In addition to reading the nightly newscasts, he hopes to do some reporting which is primarily the reason why Robertson quit the CBC. He wanted to report and edit some of his own news but was not allowed to. Negotiations are scheduled to take place soon so all this can be ironed out_ so Kent may have the opportunity to utilize his former training as a reporter. The CBC has made an excellent choice in Kent. The boyish charm that began with Robertson will continue with Kent's good looks, natural smile and air of confid- ence. Viewers of The National who came to know and like Robertson are probably going to feel the same kind of kinship with Kent. CBC officials feel that personalities have little to do with the success of their newscasts but let's face it, audiences know who they like and why. The liked Robertson and for all the same reasons, Kent is going to work his way into their hearts. Any viewers that left with Robertson arc no doubt going to return to see his replacement, if even for one evening, and find out they want to return for always. ***** Again, as has happened so many times, Canadians sat face around on their hands and listened .t0 a great performer, And watched detached as he went south of the border because Canada wouldn't recognize his ability. Hagood Hardy is back now and he's a star. "The Homecoming" did it 'for him. - And in honor of his 'homecom- ing', .CBC offered him his own special, seen last Sunday evening on the CBC Television network. In addition to that, he is performing in live concerts throughout the country and has been signed to write the score for the Canadian movie, "Second Wind". Which makes you wonder - why is a guy always more talented after he's had a hit record? "The Homecoming" won a Juno award for Hardy and earned him a platinum record, proof of more than 100,000 singles sold. it is a gorgeous piece of music which probably reflected Hardy's feelings at returning to a county where he struggled to make a name for himself for 14 years, never getting farther than a smoke-filled nightclub. Whether he touches a piano or an . xylophone, his music talks of an insecurity and Loneliness that reaches out to touch all these feelings in the listener. And, listening to Hardy, one is glad to be sad. The thing we should regret most is our own insecurity that we, as a nation, cannot stand up to the world and say, "Look at the brilliant talented people we can give you, Listen to them, watch them, they arc our people!" But we fail them and they must go elsewhere to be heard. And only when they arc stars do we give them a royal welcome back • a delightful joyous 'Homecoming'. Hagood Hardy, it's nice to have you back. We're only sorry you ever had to leave.

This book is dedicated to the quietly gallant service men and women who lived, loved, fought and some- times died in Southeast Asia.
