Return to Agira DVD
DVD commemorating the 70th Anniversary of the capture of Agira by the Seaforths and other Canadian Forces in 1943. The current Seaforth Pipes and Drums under PM Mitchell Bain played in Agira's town square like PM Ed Esson did in 1943. The CD also outlines the re-creation of the Seaforths march from the landing in Pachino to the Happy Valley.
Attached is the article "A Retrospective from Sicilys Battlefields The 2012 Canadian-American Battlefield Study Tour" by Robert Engen in Canadian Military History, Volume 22, Number 3, Summer 2013, pp.65-69.
The DVD was donated by HLt Col Rod Hoffmeister whose father commanded the Seaforths in Sicily.
