Six
years
ago
this
month
Canada's
First
Division
landed
in
England.
On
the
25th
of
December,
1939
they
spent
their
first
Christmas
away
from
home.
This
year
thousands
of
them
returned.
December
25,
1945,
will
sec
them
reunited
with
their
families
for
their
first
Christmas
since
1938.
It
is
a
day
they
have
looked
forward
to
for
many
years,
but
for
thousands
of
them
it
won't
be
a
real
Christmas.
They
will
be
spending
it
in
one
room.
They
will
be
eating
Christmas
dinner
in
restaurants.
It
will
not
be
the
Christmas
they
expected.
You
Canadians
who
have
unused
space
in
your
homes,
however,
can
help.
You
can
make
this
unused
space
available
to
a
veteran.
You
can
provide
them
with
a
place
where
they
can
be
together
with
their
wives
and
their
children.
