We got talking about the project and they seemed interested in becoming involved. After his return home, I received an email from him and he eventually offered to help organise the collection of photos and promote the project in Alberta, British Columbia, and the western United States. He has also recruited a number of volunteers from across Alberta. I can't seem to get a decent smiling photo from Brian. Maybe inside he's smiling from ear to ear.
Lets hope so.
Brian was also interviewed and videoed photographing war graves for a piece on Global TV in Lethbridge, Alberta. The item was subsequently broadcast across Canada on Friday Nov. 10. Through a chance email encounter with Warren, he became interested in the project. He has since taken on the collection of photos in Manitoba and NW Ontario. Manitoba was one of the centres of the Commonwealth Air Training Plan and as such there are a lot of war graves there as a result of training accidents.
