Field of Crosses

The city has set up a field of crosses along Memorial Drive, naming Albertans killed in combat. My mom and I went, and found her uncle’s cross: Howard Blatchford, an RAF flying ace in WWII (the cross incorrectly identifies him with the RCAF). Family legend says he was the youngest pilot to get his license in Canada; he flew in the north before the war began.
