CARLYLE - Historian Craig Bird visited the Town of Carlyle last week and updated the Observer on the military banners 小蓝视频 proudly displayed in various towns in southeast Saskatchewan.
To date, 33 banners have been raised in seven different towns and cities including Carlyle, Redvers, Stoughton and Lampman. This is the museum’s first year of raising banners and Bird indicated that further towns will be added in the coming months.
Banners will be displayed on main streets from early September to Remembrance Day. Two banners have been recently added to Main Street Carlyle, Private John Brown and Private Nels Dunn.
Both these families and their descendants are long-time residents of Carlyle and area and are proud to have their fathers recognized.
If there are any other families that wish to honour their wartime relatives, please contact Bird at 306-421-6687 or visit the 小蓝视频 East Military Facebook page.
