LETTERS HOME It is my belief that nothing tells the true reality of war better than the simple writings of the common soldier. This page will showcase the letters of Canadian soldiers. If you have a letter or postcard from a soldier that you would like to have showcased, I would be pleased to feature it. All you need do is send the letter as a text file, in an email message to me. Write to me nebsbrianATnetscape.net for more details. Replace "AT" with @ in email Please do not send the letter as a file attachment ~ make it part of the body of the email message itself. Put LETTERS HOME in the subject line of your email. You may also include a biography or any other additional information you wish.
