Je me souviens de mon grand-p\u00e8re, \u00ab Poppa \u00bb, lorsque nous passions nos \u00e9t\u00e9s \u00e0 Charlottetown, dans l’\u00cele-du-Prince-\u00c9douard, o\u00f9 il vivait. Il m’emmenait p\u00eacher \u00e0 \u00ab Wisner’s Pond \u00bb t\u00f4t le matin, m’apprenant \u00e0 app\u00e2ter les hame\u00e7ons et \u00e0 d\u00e9barquer un poisson. La truite fra\u00eeche po\u00eal\u00e9e reste encore aujourd’hui un d\u00e9licieux souvenir. Ma grand-m\u00e8re et lui vivaient dans cette merveilleuse vieille maison avec des escaliers \u00e0 l’envers et des pi\u00e8ces cach\u00e9es, un endroit passionnant et myst\u00e9rieux \u00e0 explorer quand on est enfant. Poppa s’occupait \u00e9galement de la plus belle roseraie\u2026 Ce n’est qu’\u00e0 l’\u00e2ge adulte que j’ai pu appr\u00e9cier le r\u00f4le de mon Poppa en tant que membre de l’arm\u00e9e canadienne. Il a particip\u00e9 aux combats de la Somme, de la colline 70 et de Passchendaele. Il a \u00e9t\u00e9 bless\u00e9 deux fois, a \u00e9t\u00e9 gaz\u00e9 \u00e0 la colline 70 et a re\u00e7u la M\u00e9daille militaire pour bravoure \u00e0 la cr\u00eate de Vimy pour avoir maintenu la communication sous le feu de l’ennemi. Il s’est r\u00e9engag\u00e9 en 1940 et s’est rendu en Angleterre o\u00f9 il a \u00e9t\u00e9 promu lieutenant-colonel. Il a le privil\u00e8ge d’escorter la reine Elizabeth lorsque celle-ci et le roi George VI inspectent les transmissions de la 3e division \u00e0 Farnborough, en Angleterre. Son navire est torpill\u00e9 alors qu’il fait route vers l’Italie (sans perte de vie), et il commande ensuite le bataillon de renfort lors de la campagne d’Italie. \u00c0 son retour \u00e0 l’\u00cele-du-Prince-\u00c9douard, au Canada, il a \u00e9t\u00e9 nomm\u00e9 administrateur de district des affaires des anciens combattants. Mon grand-p\u00e8re n’a jamais parl\u00e9 de ces \u00e9v\u00e9nements, et je n’ai jamais pens\u00e9 \u00e0 lui dire \u00ab Merci pour ton service \u00bb. Comme beaucoup d’autres, mon grand-p\u00e8re, le lieutenant-colonel Frank Benjamin Conrad, \u00e9tait l’un de ces h\u00e9ros discrets qui ont contribu\u00e9 de multiples fa\u00e7ons \u00e0 la pr\u00e9servation des droits et des libert\u00e9s des citoyens du Canada et d’autres pays.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
