 Pictures of SAR VETERANS can be viewed on our PICTURE BOOK PAGES. 

History has a way of becoming lost in today's busy world.  It is important that we all remember the sacrifices made by these veterans and their fallen comrades.  I hope that this website will encourage us all to remember and be grateful to these men who played such a significant part in our country's history.

ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS

 

This project initially started out as my personal tribute dedicated to my father, Captain R. E. Crawford, who served with the SAR and later with the R.C.A.F.   This website has evolved from that TRIBUTE PAGE and is my way of honouring both my father and the men of the SAR.Two close friends of mine have been instrumental in developing this site.   Jack Porter is a SAR Veteran who served with the SAR during the war.  Jack worked long and hard at developing a set of 'Memorial Books'  which the three outstanding slide shows on this site are based on.  Our friend Ben McDougall provided the much needed technical assistance.  The 3 Power-point slide shows (complete with music) were developed as a way of showing tribute to the men of the SAR as well as the Picture Book Pages showing SAR members, mostly during the War.

Thanks;  Mike Crawford
