This booklet, published on the 50th Anniversary of the end of World War Two in Europe, is dedicated to all those who fought with honour on both sides in World War Two especially my dad, C. N. Martens, who served his country throughout the whole war with Canada's Princess Patricia Light Infantry and Bruce's father, H. Gorden McFarlane, who served in the RCAF.
