Samuel Barbour est n\u00e9 \u00e0 Southwest Arm le 25 janvier 1920. Son enfance est semblable \u00e0 celle de la plupart des jeunes hommes de la campagne terre-neuvienne de l’\u00e9poque. Il p\u00eache, il joue, il va dans les bois – presque toujours accompagn\u00e9 de son chien, Skipper. Sam fr\u00e9quente l’\u00e9cole \u00e0 classe unique de la communaut\u00e9, du moins jusqu’\u00e0 l’\u00e2ge de treize ans, lorsqu’il doit quitter l’\u00e9cole pour aller p\u00eacher le long du Labrador (comme beaucoup de jeunes hommes de sa g\u00e9n\u00e9ration devaient le faire pour aider \u00e0 subvenir aux besoins de leur famille). Lorsqu’il a 19 ans, la guerre s’est abattue sur l’Europe pour la deuxi\u00e8me fois du si\u00e8cle. Le 8 juin 1940, Samuel Barbour s’enr\u00f4le \u00e0 Greenspond et un peu plus de deux semaines plus tard, il arrive \u00e0 St. John’s pour commencer son service militaire en tant qu’artilleur (GNR) dans la batterie \u00ab A \u00bb du 59e r\u00e9giment lourd (Terre-Neuve) de l’Artillerie royale britannique. Apr\u00e8s une semaine de pr\u00e9paratifs, il embarque sur le S.S. Nova Scotia et d\u00e9barque \u00e0 Liverpool. Au cours des quatre ann\u00e9es suivantes, Sam sera stationn\u00e9 en Angleterre. Il s’arr\u00eate d’abord \u00e0 Brookhouse, pr\u00e8s de Lancaster, pour l’entra\u00eenement initial du r\u00e9giment. Il passe ensuite la majeure partie de son temps en Angleterre, o\u00f9 il fait partie du syst\u00e8me de d\u00e9fense c\u00f4ti\u00e8re \u00e0 Lympne Castle, une minuscule communaut\u00e9 situ\u00e9e \u00e0 l’extr\u00e9mit\u00e9 sud-est du pays, sur la Manche. \u00c0 l’approche du jour J, Sam se retrouve \u00e0 Tunbridge Wells, toujours dans le comt\u00e9 du Kent, au sud-est de l’Angleterre. Six ou sept jours apr\u00e8s le jour J, Sam et le \u00ab Fighting 59th \u00bb ont \u00e9t\u00e9 s\u00e9lectionn\u00e9s pour participer \u00e0 la bataille du Rhin. Les Terre-Neuviens se sont r\u00e9v\u00e9l\u00e9s \u00eatre l’une des unit\u00e9s d’artillerie lourde les plus efficaces au cours de cette bataille, et sont devenus la seule artillerie lourde alli\u00e9e \u00e0 avoir travers\u00e9 le Rhin. Apr\u00e8s le Rhin, le 59e a particip\u00e9 \u00e0 l’attaque de Br\u00eame et \u00e9tait sur le point de marcher vers l’attaque de Hambourg lorsque la guerre s’est termin\u00e9e. Sam a termin\u00e9 son service outre-mer le 7 juillet 1945. Il a \u00e9t\u00e9 officiellement lib\u00e9r\u00e9 le 30 juillet 1945. \u00c0 son retour, Sam est rest\u00e9 \u00e0 la maison pendant une bonne partie de l’hiver. En mars 1946, il est mont\u00e9 \u00e0 bord de l’Investigator, un bateau exp\u00e9rimental du gouvernement. La m\u00eame ann\u00e9e, il rencontre Margaret Attwood, et trois ans plus tard, le 7 juin 1949, ils se marient. Sam et Margaret auront trois enfants, ainsi qu’un neveu qu’ils ont adopt\u00e9. Dans les ann\u00e9es 1950, la plupart des r\u00e9gions rurales de Terre-Neuve sont en d\u00e9clin, et la petite communaut\u00e9 de Southwest Arm ne fait pas exception \u00e0 la r\u00e8gle. En 1956, dans le cadre du programme de r\u00e9installation de Joey Smallwood, Sam a d\u00e9m\u00e9nag\u00e9 sa famille \u00e0 Valleyfield – d\u00e9montant leur maison de Southwest Arm planche par planche et clou par clou, puis construisant une nouvelle maison avec les m\u00eames mat\u00e9riaux. Sam finit par obtenir son brevet de p\u00eache et devient capitaine de plusieurs bateaux du gouvernement f\u00e9d\u00e9ral, menant des recherches exp\u00e9rimentales, d’abord sur le Strait Shore, puis sur le \u00ab Blue Hake \u00bb. Il a pris sa retraite en 1983, mais il est rest\u00e9 actif en rendant visite \u00e0 ses quatre enfants, ses sept petits-enfants et ses nombreux arri\u00e8re-petits-enfants. Lecteur passionn\u00e9, Sam se rendait \u00e9galement chaque ann\u00e9e \u00e0 l’Acad\u00e9mie Pearson et au c\u00e9notaphe municipal pour participer aux activit\u00e9s du jour du Souvenir, et ce jusqu’\u00e0 son d\u00e9c\u00e8s en 2013.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
