P.A. greets Wounded Warriors before their special weekend
A group of people who routinely put their lives on the line were welcomed with open, albeit soggy arms into Prince Albert yesterday.
Veterans from all across Canada, and even the United States, were part of a special motorcade procession in honour of Wounded Warriors Weekend. Not even a torrential downpour could dampen the spirits of all those aboard.
“There’s so many people who went to Afghanistan and Bosnia and Croatia and the Second World War, many places. They’ve been so damaged mentally, not just physically, but mentally because of the atrocious things that they’ve seen,” Clara Wiberg said.
Wiberg’s husband was a war vet who recently passed away. She said the Warriors’ cause is very dear to her heart, and she often wonders what kind of support he could have received if he was still alive today.
