And even though we may not have family that served, there are many other things we can do to “Remember” including visiting one of our great miliary museums in the area, and we have 3! The Museum at the Brandon Armories (next to the Brandon Police Service) the Air Training Museum (next to the airport) and the RCA Museum at CFB Shilo.
