Paperback. Zustand: Good. First Edition. "Nearly four thousand of Saskatchewan's young men and women who served in World War II did not survive to return home after the war. The names of those whose final resting places are known are found in war cemeteries across Europe and North Africa, in England and in the Far East. Some are buried at home in Canada. The names of those whose bodies were never recovered, whether at sea or on land, are found on army, navy, or air force monuments, their graves unmarked. Back in Saskatchewan, their names are found on honour rolls and cenotaphs in their hometowns - and on the official map of their home province. Here are the stories of eighty-nine of these young army, air force, and navy servicemen, as they are remembered by friends and family today. And here is a list of all their names, with rank, hometown, and casualty date when these are known, along with each geo-memorial feature and its location." - back cover. 250 pages.
