D Day veteran Cyrl Ternent recalls war memories
Cyrl Ternent, a D Day veteran, recalls buried WW II memories and the toll of war. He joined the Royal Canadian Regiment in 1941 and sailed to England with 19,000 Canadians in 1942 aboard the Queen Elizabeth. He drove vehicles and served as an ambulance driver through the blitz and the invasion, witnessing a London dance hall bombing. He says the country was worth the risk and mentions his two brothers who survived the war, discharged January 1945.
