Well, the title should lead you to guess what I am talking about: Vimy Ridge. Just a few weeks ago, marks the date of the battle for Vimy Ridge that occured on April 9th, 1917. It was almost 100 years ago, on a miserable stormy April morning, Canadian soldiers stormed and conquered an important ridge in France. The French failed, the British failed, however, our brave farmboys prevailed.
I think a movie should be made about this remarkable WWI battle. I have heard that a movie was made before, in the 80's I believe. I love history and I would love to see a film about this battle, which also proved our soldiers were the finest on the Western Front, and the most feared by the Germans.
Lest We Forget, for we may never owe so much again.
What do you all think?
