How could you look at a little kid and say no.
Heroes Remember
I seen a lot of things, like children, hungry children. Seen a
lot of things that happens in war. One thing I can say about a
Canadian, they sure looked after the children, regardless who
they were. The Canadian soldier, or the Canadian army, when they
come across children, the children was first. We fed them. The
officers would get mad at us and say, some of them, “Hey, you
can’t give away our rations.” We don’t know when the next things
coming up. That didn’t mean nothing to us. Hell, we’d take them
children and feed them. You had to. How could you look at a
little kid and say no?
I seen them in France when we first went into France. They were
starving, a lot of them kids. When we were eating we would throw
stuff in the garbage. They would go pick it up and eat it. How
in the hell can you not feed them? How can you not
look after them, you know?
I think Canadians should be proud of their military people
because they looked after the children. They looked after other
people that was sick as much as they could, you know.
