In Flanders Fields

By: Lieutenant Colonel John McCrae, MD (1872-1918) Canadian Army

In Flanders Fields the poppies blow Between the crosses row on row, That mark our place; and in the sky

The larks, still bravely singing, fly Scarce heard amid the guns below.

We are the Dead. Short days ago We lived, felt dawn, saw sunset glow, Loved and were loved, and now we lie In Flanders Fields.

Take up our quarrel with the foe: To you from failing hands we throw The torch; be yours to hold it high.

If ye break faith with us who die We shall not sleep, though poppies grow In Flanders Fields.

Legion to host Remembrance Day ceremony

well.”

These groups, among others, will be honoured and commemo rated during the Legion’s upcom ing ceremony on November 11. The event will take place at 10AM, by the cenotaph at the Merritt Civic Centre.

Merritt’s own Royal Canadian Legion Branch No. 96 has hosted an annual Remembrance Day ceremony for decades, with Legion members and the public alike planning to gather in respect and remembrance once again this year at the City’s cenotaph. The annual commemo ration has been scaled back in recent years due

to the COVID-19 pandemic, but organizers are ready to bring back the full event.

The Legion supports a num ber of causes in the community, including giving generously to other organiza tions and indi viduals. They support not only veterans, but local non-profits and individuals in their endeavours to bet

ter the community.

During this time of the year, the Legion is mainly focused on the former, includ ing their poppy campaign and Remembrance Day ceremony.

The Legion execu tive said that the scope of the Legion’s work is wider than many anticipate.

“A lot of people think that the Legion is just for World War I, World War II, and Korean War veter ans,” said Arlene

Johnston, presi dent of the Legion Branch No. 96.

“We have the RCMP that are protecting us every day, and we still have vet erans coming home from all the conflicts around the world. The Army Cadets and all of them are still ongoing, and providing safety to our communities and the world. We want to remember everybody, not just the people that have passed as

Legion members, Rocky Mountain Rangers, and the RCMP will partic ipate in this year’s ceremony. The program includes a vigil before the ceremony, the Colour Party’s march in, remarks and prayers, as well as the tradi tional playing of The Last Post on bugle. Other pro ceedings will take place during and after the ceremo ny, including the laying of wreaths and a moment of silence.

The two min utes of silence, which the Legion’s website describes as the “most

sacrosanct and central element” of Remembrance, is acknowledged at the 11th hour of the 11th day of the 11th month.

Canadians pause and remember in silence the sacrifices of those who

died in service and those who served and continue to serve. The moment of silence is held annually at the same time in which hostilities ended in 1918, at the end of the First World War.

“We’re here to help any veteran from any of the armies and navies, and a whole list of different branches that we support. I want to make sure that people are aware that we do unfortunately have ongoing conflicts, and it isn’t just about the

old wars,” added Johnston. Following the ceremony and the Colour Party’s return downtown, the Legion’s building on Quilchena Avenue will be host to an open house and commemorative event highlighting the service and sacri-

fice of veterans in Canada. Hot rum will be served to those of age, but all are welcome to attend.

Remembrance Day ceremony returns in Shulus

Marius Auer REPORTER@MERRITTHERALD.COM

The Nicola Valley First Nations Veterans (NVFNV) is a local organization

looking to educate and inform locals on the often overlooked and unrecognized

sacrifices made by First Nations veterans in the valley, and across the country. While their main focus is currently the new monument

project, a major upgrade from the two large boulders currently at the memorial site, the organization continues to educate

through a plethora of resources and their annual Remembrance Day ceremony.

From Page 13

The organization came to be in 2003, when local veterans Percy Jackson of Shackan and Richard Jackson, Jr. of Lower Nicola Indian Band (LNIB) together recognized the need to honour and recognize First Nations veterans in the Nicola Valley.

The two found a large granite boulder, moving it to Shulus to become the NVFNV first monument. Four plaques were placed on the boulder, representing World War I,

World War II, the Korean War, and the Vietnam War. The NVFNV have taken on numerous projects in the past, such as their collaboration with the Last Post Fund’s Indigenous Veterans Initiative. Funding through this initiative has allowed the organization to place over 20 military markers honouring Indigenous veterans.

“The goal of the organization is to pay respect and honour to our veterans, which is what’s most impor-

tant,” said Carol Holmes of Upper Nicola, member of the NVFNV.

“When we take a look at the history of Indigenous people, we are not recognized for how we’ve contributed to Canada. Our veterans served, and many of them volunteered, but they were never recognized. There was very little recognition, so it’s important for us to make sure that our veterans are being honoured and recognized, and that their stories are being told.”

The veterans hope to continue

collecting and disseminating these local stories of bravery and courage in serving the country, with many local First Nations serving throughout Canada’s history.

At least two First Nations veterans residing in the valley have been killed in action. Those who did return were often mistreated, and given far less support and recognition than their non-Indigenous counterparts, if any. Holmes adds that there is a personal onus on Canadians to research and edu-

cate themselves on Canada’s history with Indigenous veterans, but hopes that her organization can help to bridge the gap. Those looking to support the NVFNV can share their own or family’s stories of serving, or donate to the new pillar monument’s progress through the LNIB office, with a notation it is for the Nicola Valley First Nations Veterans. The organization hopes to erect its new monument by March of 2023, having raised a significant amount

of funding through Veterans Affairs, donations by businesses, and community fundraisers.

“Going off to

war was an immediate response, so there were minimal places to actually document and to research,” added

Holmes. “With First Nations there was very little. It was left up to the Indian Agent, and in most cases they didn’t keep track

or really care. We need that information shared and known, not only for our people, but for Canadians to know that this is our country and we continue to contribute to our nation.”

The NVFNV annual Remembrance Day ceremony is back this year after a two year hiatus, and will see participants gather at the Anglican Church in Shulus before parading to the Catholic Church, which is the site of the current monument. A ceremony will then take place at the

site, marking the last ceremony there before the organization moves the event to the new monument location in 2023. All are welcome, and participants are asked to gather at the Anglican Church by 10:20AM.

For more information, or to have your or a family member’s name on the new monument, contact Carol Holmes at 250-378-7809. The deadline for submission of a veteran’s name to be included on the monument is November 15, 2022.

Why the poppy?

The association between the poppy and war dates back to the Napoleonic wars, when a writer saw a field of poppies growing over the graves of fallen soldiers.

During the Battle of Ypres in 1915, Canadian Lt.-Col. John McCrae was inspired to write the poem In Flanders Fields on sighting the poppies growing beside a grave of a close friend who had died in battle.

The poem was a great inspiration in adopting the poppy as the Flower of Remembrance in Canada, France, the U.S., Britain and Commonwealth countries.

The first poppies were distributed in Canada in 1921.

Today the volunteer donations from the distribution of millions of poppies is an important source of revenue for the Royal Canadian Legion that goes toward helping ex-servicemen and women buy food, and obtain shelter and medical attention.

Honour Ranch opens after two year delay

Izaiah Reyes NEWSROOM@MERRITTHERALD.COM

Just an hour away from Merritt and 10 minutes away from Ashcroft lies a very unique accommodation for men and women who serve in uni form.

The Honour Ranch is a safe haven for people in many fields to conduct mental health programs. The lodging aims to provide a great environment at no cost for uniformed individuals or

groups to conduct programs promot ing their mental well being.

“It’s a platform,” said Bob Parkinson, a board member of the Honour House Society. “Honour Ranch basically started when we saw that people coming to the house were not get ting support around mental health that they needed. We wanted to create a platform that can get more mental

health supports out there.”

Honour House Society is a non-for profit society that dedicates them selves to the aid of people in uniform. There are over 80 volunteers, a board of directors, and a staff executive director that make up the organiza tion.

Honour Ranch is the second prop erty operated by the group, with the first being the Honour House located in New Westminster. The

house is a free accommodation for uniformed person nel, both retired and active, and their families while they seek medical treatment.

“The nature of the industry is very tough,” Parkinson said. “All the work the people in uni form are doing whether you are a police officer, fire fighter, paramedic, military, or correc tions, it’s very tough work. It’s hard to let your guard down and relax so to have a relaxing

environment such as the ranch is a big thing because it allows people to let their walls down and decompress.”

The oppor tunity to operate the ranch fell on their lap, accord ing to Parkinson. A Vancouver devel oper connected with the President of Honour House letting them know about the avail ability of land in Ashcroft.

“The devel oper purchased the ranch on our behalf and we

acquired it back in 2019,” said Parkinson.

“We had launched but then there was something called COVID-19 that shut us down,” he jokingly explained.

“We couldn’t con tinue with what we were doing but now we are available to help people and organizations put on programming and do things.”

Honour Ranch opened its doors back in the summer of this year. The ranch features 10 cabins and a family style lodge where groups can meet up to conduct their programs, varying from retreats, resil ience training and different forms of therapies.

“It’s been received extremely well,” he described. “We’ve had military groups and people from across Canada go up there and do things like forge therapy, where they were building axes and knives while talking and learn ing about mental health issues and supports.”

Chris Hennebery is the Chief Warrant Officer for the Royal Westminster Regiment. He manages ‘Veterans Artist Collective,’ a group which pro vides art outreach to veterans and

serving soldiers.

Hennebery was able to utilize the Honour Ranch on two separate occa sions; a plein air painting weekend he hosted back in June and a forge therapy weekend this past September.

“We would not have been able to run these programs without Honour Ranch,” he said.

“We wouldn’t be able to do this any where else because we’d have to pay for the lodging.”

Both weekends saw nine veterans and soldiers get involved with the art making ses sions as a form of creative outlet.

Honour Ranch acted as a scenic backdrop that encouraged the participants’ cre ativity.

“It’s very unique facility, really nicely set up, very profes sional volunteers who manage it, it’s overall an amaz

ing place,” he described. “All the veterans and the soldiers that come up there are just absolutely blown away by the facil ity.”

Parkinson said that the ranch guests they’ve had so far are from all over B.C., from Ashcroft to the Victoria and the Kootenays. Honour

Ranch also gets visitors outside of the province such as New Brunswick, Nova Scotia, and Ontario.

“The Ashcroft area is beautiful, and the ranch set ting is beautiful so everyone loves it.” “Many people who come up there say that the pictures don’t do it justice. It’s one of

those places where you see a picture of it and it looks nice but you get up there and it’s actually way more powerful. It’s a phenomenal place for people to get assistance.”

Legion Branch 96 awards ‘First Poppy’ to Mo Dixon

first poppy. A small gathering was held at the Legion on Quilchena Avenue, where Dixon was presented the poppy by Legion President Arlene Johnston. She said it was an honour, and shared her motivation for joining the organiza tion.

“I’m not a veteran, but I joined the Legion because my dad was a veteran,” said Dixon.

“I got to meet so many of his com patriots, but they’re all gone now. That’s the sad part. I visit them every year, I go up to the cemetery, and they are there. And I have a memory with each and every one of them.”

Remembrance Day proceedings. Dixon added that the Legion fills a gap in services and support for veterans, a fact that has been clear to her since day one.

“Even in those days we could see what the Legion was trying to do for the veterans, and they were really fresh out of service. In those days, they were shell shocked. It was so sad, and there was no help for them,” added Dixon.

Marius Auer REPORTER@MERRITTHERALD.COM

Merritt’s Royal Canadian Legion Branch 96 began its annual com memoration of Remembrance Day on Thursday, October 27, by presenting a lifetime Legion member with the honor ary first poppy. The first poppy is given to a prominent member of the com

munity to signify the start of the annual poppy campaign, which raises funds to provide financial assistance and resourc es for veterans.

Mo Dixon first joined the legion 47 years ago, and has dedicated her life to serving within the organization. Dixon is a well respected member of the com munity, and was chosen by Legion members as the recipient of this year’s

Along with her annual visit to veter an’s gravestones, Dixon has been heav ily involved with the Legion for nearly half a century. She served as President, organized fundraisers, coordinated Remembrance Day proceedings, and often visited schools to take part in their respective ceremonies. Dixon’s passion for the organization was evident while receiving the 2022 first poppy, clearly moved by the honour.

Dixon described herself as a proud Legion member, and doesn’t plan to slow down anytime soon. She plans to be with the Legion for a long time to come, and is once again involved in this year’s poppy campaign and

“I thank everybody for supporting the Royal Canadian Legion. There are a lot of avenues that the Legion sup ports. Every single dollar that goes into the Poppy Fund comes back out of that fund, it doesn’t go into the general cof fers.”

Funds raised by the sale of poppies and accessories go into a Poppy Trust Fund, administered by the Legion. Use of the trust funds are strictly controlled, with stringent approval processes in place. The Legion branch executive is accountable for Poppy Trust Fund expenditures, and the local executive is happy to take on that task. Recently, the local Legion donated $5000 from the fund to the Nicola Valley First Nation Veterans (NVFNV) monument project in Shulus.

Cents observe Remembrance Day ahead of home game

Marius Auer REPORTER@MERRITTHERALD.COM

The Merritt Centennials are taking time as individuals to pay their respects and honour those who have fought and died to protect Canadian free doms before their afternoon game on November 11, as they attend the Merritt Legion’s Remembrance Day ceremony.

Later the same day, the Cents will take on the Spruce Kings at the Nicola Valley Memorial Arena in a game that will be free to attend for all active military person nel, veterans, and RCMP members.

Cents coaching and management staff told the Herald that the

initiative, along with the Cents attendance at the ceremony, is a part of the team’s collective and individual com mitment to paying respect to service members.

“The plan is for our guys to pay their respects and show up just like any other person,” said Curtis Toneff, head coach and GM for the Cents.

“There’s so much going in

the world, but the one thing we can’t forget is Remembrance Day and the sol diers who fought for our freedom. It’s not about the Centennials get ting face time out in the community, it’s about us being normal people and attending the ceremony, so we never forget.”

Before the start of the game, both the teams and attendees will

observe a moment of silence in hon our of the sacri fice of those who have served and continue to serve.

The moment of silence is similar to the two minutes of silence acknowl edged at the 11th hour of the 11th day of the 11th month. Canadians pause and remem ber in silence the sacrifices of those who served. The moment of silence is held annually at

the same time in which hostilities ended in 1918, at the end of the First World War. For more information on the Merritt Centennials, including their offer of free tick ets for service members for the November 11 game, visit www. merrittcentennials. com.

RCMP helps members manage work stress

two trained CISM members avail able for our local RCMP members to access should they feel the need.

“We have those support locally if we need it right away but we can also call on other CISM members or peer to peer mem bers outside of that if they need help,” said Roda.

Roda noted the necessity of this program within their line of work, citing examples like death of children, sudden death, and horrific car accidents as some of the worst cases that officers may be exposed to on the field.

Izaiah Reyes NEWSROOM@MERRITTHERALD.COM

“Seeking help is not a weakness,” said Sergeant Josh Roda of the Merritt RCMP. “It takes strength to recognize some thing is wrong and it takes a lot of strength to work towards fix ing it and getting healthy.”

With Remembrance Day coming up, we are asked to not only honour the people who both serve and have served our country, but we are also asked to recognize the toll it takes on a person when they are in the line of duty, whether it be in the military, the police, the fire department, or emergency response.

“I think the mil itary, the police, or any first respond

ers see horrendous things when we go to work,” Roda explained. “We often deal with people on the worst day of their lives. We have to be there for them and be a part of their horrible day. Because this is the case, we have to worry about ourselves at times, so I just want to encourage anyone suffering from operational stress injuries to seek help.”

The Herald spoke with Sgt. Roda to talk about how the officers of the Merritt RCMP are managing the stresses they face while on duty.

“If RCMP members are involved in a criti cal incident such as a shooting, a horrible death,

or a horrible collision scene, our officers will call our Critical Incident Stress Management (CISM) team and they’ll touch base with all the mem bers involved to offer support. They will also do large debriefs on the situation so mem bers can talk about their feelings, talk about what hap pened and how they are doing. If they require fur ther support, we put people in touch with psychologists and counseling.”

The CISM team is a group of officers that are trained in crisis interven tion, deescalation techniques, stress management techniques. The CISM program is accessible for all RCMP members across Canada. In Merritt, there are

“It’s been incredibly valu able. Members are looped in right away when officers are dealing with the various case files, to offer sup port in real time.”

Geared towards active RCMP members, the CISM team’s ser vice is very ben eficial because of the ongoing check ins that the team does to members and their ability to refer them to any necessary resources and services.

“The RCMP has been excel lent in the last five years at really taking the reins on this,” Roda said.

“Members do not carry the bag gage of case files anymore and they have an under standing of how these incidents are going to affect them. I notice that I have a lot less members dealing with mental health issues because of these programs.”

“Our members this past year have gone through two horrific shootings where somebody took their life in front of our detachment,” he recalled. “Six months later we had a huge shoot out here with a dangerous offender in town. The abil ity to debrief and put members in touch with a psy chologist is critical to their health.”

Along with the CISM pro gram, the RCMP also has a peer to peer support network in place, with one member available at the local detachment. Active and retired members are also able to access the Operational Stress Injury Program where they can receive supports to cope with the stresses from the field.

“I hope all our responders can seek help so everybody can be healthy and we can serve the public the best we can.”

The Merritt RCMP detatchment has two available CISM officers and one peer to peer representative ready to support members that are in need of support. Photo/Herald File

REMEMBRANCE DAY

Remembering a distinguished founding member of the local museum

Failing his wireless test, he ended up at No.2 Manning Depot, Brandon.

They were now short of air gun ners so he was sent to Gunnery School in Quebec City and then to No.9 B & G School at Mont Joli, Quebec where he gradu ated in July, 1943.

to do what was called a “Tour of Instructing” for a few months.

when the atomic bombs ended the war with Japan.

Born in 1915, Sigurd Teit was the son of famed anthropologist James Teit and Josephine Morens. Sigurd spent most of his life in Merritt, even winning Citizen of the Year in 1992. He is also one of the found ing members of the Nicola Valley Museum and Archives, donating most of the James Teit works and artifacts that could be viewed there today.

Aside from this, Sigurd also was a decorated soldier, with his medals displayed at the museum he helped establish.

In the spring of 1942, while in Vancouver, Sigurd enlisted in the R.C.A.F. as a wireless air gun ner as they did not need any air gun ners at the time.

He went first to No.3 Manning Depot, Edmonton and from there to No.3 Wireless School, Winnipeg.

Sigurd left from Halifax shortly after, on the Oueen Mary with 22,000 other “bodies”. Landing at Greenoch, Scotland he went by train to Bournmouth in the south of England. He trained first at 22 Operational Unit, Wellesbourne, with a five man crew on Wellingtons, and then at 1656 Heavy Conversion Unit, Topcliff on Halifax Bomber with full crew of seven.

Sigurd then put in a tour of operations (40 trips) with 419 Moose Sqdn., Middleton St. George, first on Halifax Bombers, then on Canadian built Lancaster Bombers, as a Rear Gunner from the fall of 1943 to late summer, 1944. Then he was sent to 1664 Heavy Conversion Unit, Dishford

He crewed up again and started flying operations with 427 Lion Sqdn., Leeming. Sigurd finished four trips and was on the fifth when they were called back because the war had ended in Europe.

He signed up for the Japanese conflict, so came back to Canada early on the Aquitania and was stationed at Moncton. N.B.

After the war there must have been some DFCs (Distinguished Flying Cross) left over, and not knowing what to do with them they put a number of names in a hat. One of the names picked was Sigurd Teit. On Nov 23, 1945, Sigurd received a DFC.

Sigurd would continue to live a long life, and later pass away on November 5, 2002.
