Navy.ca's Fallen Comrades

They shall grow not old, as we that are left grow old



You ask, what is our aim? I can answer in one word. It is victory. Victory at all costs. Victory in spite of all terrors. Victory, however long and hard the road may be, for without victory there is no survival.

- Prime Minister Winston Churchill
