Christmas at the Front

Christmas is a special time of year to be with family. Although we all benefit from Canada’s military efforts, most of us have little understanding of war and its impact on everyday life around the world. We may often overlook the little things, such as the difficulties and heartache that soldiers and their families feel while being apart at Christmas. No one wants to be away from their loved ones during the holidays, but for Canadian troops and their families, it can be a sad reality.
