This is the most complete accounting of the HMS Alberni I have ever seen. It was one of the dozens of Flower-Class Corvettes built by Canada in the Second World War that escorted convoys between North America and Europe.
She served from 1941 until she was sunk by U-480 southeast of the Isle of Wight while participating in the support of the invasion of Normandy in August 1944. 59 crew were lost.

Remembrance Day Wreath laying ceremony at the Ambassador of Peace hosted by the Korean Veterans Association.
I am so grateful for the strong and enduring friendship between Korea and Canada. Our two countries will forever be connected by those who fought, and by those who paid the ultimate price during the Korean War. Their courage, respect, and friendship live on in the relationships we share today.
🙏🙏 to all the organizers, volunteers and great MC Michael Chang

Canadian-born, 21-year-old Bill Millin, the Mad Piper of the D-Day landing.
Played his bagpipes for his comrades in the HLI Queen’s Own Cameron Highlanders No. 4 Commandos at Pegasus Bridge at the command of his superior officer, Commander Lord Lovat.
‘Millin played "Highland Laddie", "The Road to the Isles", and "All The Blue Bonnets Are Over the Border" as his comrades fell around him on Sword Beach. Millin stated that he later talked to captured German snipers who claimed they did not shoot at him because they thought he had gone mad.’
“McCrae was a McGill professor and physician. He and his colleagues from Montreal's No. 3 Canadian General Hospital, organized by the university, cared for thousands of soldiers during the First World War.
“In Flanders Fields is still recited each year at Remembrance Day ceremonies across Canada — more than a century after it was written.
“McCrae, serving as a medical officer in the Canadian Expeditionary Force as a lieutenant-colonel, wrote the poem in the spring of 1915 as the war entered its 11th month. Born in Guelph, Ont., he crafted the piece in Belgium following the death of a friend and fellow soldier during the Second Battle of Ypres.”
