Note for information: I am the grandson of a Canadian Immigrant.  My granddad, Leonard G Fuller volunteered on 30 August 1915 and served with the Canadian Field Artillery.  He was lucky to survive the war serving in Ypres and Passchendaele.  Hence taking the time to pay my respects to Thomas, who is lying in a field that is forever Canadian.
