Lest We Forget — Remembering Our History Through Maps
As the poppies begin to appear again, be sure to pick up yours and wear it with pride.
Remembrance Day is a time to honour the brave men and women who made the ultimate sacrifice in service to our country. Their courage and sacrifice helped protect the freedoms we enjoy today. We must never forget them.
At MapTown, we believe that understanding our history helps keep their stories alive. Our collection of historic maps includes maps of Vimy Ridge, Normandy, and the D-Day landing beaches — important places that remind us of the sacrifices made by so many.
