Imagine, blackberries in October still. A Canadian soldier enjoying the blackberries he had just gathered in Bourlon Wood, October 1918. This was probably such a welcomed treat - fresh fruit off the bush.

You, or someone you know will experience mental illness. The signs aren't always visible. Help remove the stigma and be open with yourself and others when it comes to discussing mental health.

More photos from our visit to @TMM_yyc. Make sure you visit next time you are in Calgary. Each museum typically covers from the FWW to Afghanistan, and everything in between. Lots of amazing artifacts and well done displays!

Dedicated in 2011, the Calgary Soldiers Memorial is a respectful tribute to the 3,000+ Calgarians, 🇨🇦 armed forces members who died during armed conflicts. Each name is individually inscribed on marble tablets; the 1st stone quotes from, "In Flanders Fields," by John McCrae. #yyc
