Poppy Campaign is over, and the Cochrane Legion can't thank everyone enough for supporting our Veterans. It was a tough year. We had to do some things a bit differently, and of course we did not have our amazing cadets. Poppy donations are accepted at the Legion all year round, either by our DONATE button on our website: www.cochranelegion15.ca or by coming into the Branch.

Today is the 76th anniversary of the D-Day landings in Normandy. On June 6th, 1944, Allied forces launched the long-awaited strike against the Nazis in France, ...fighting their way ashore under heavy fire to secure a beach in Europe. 14,000 brave Canadians landed at Juno Beach early that morning. Many of the Canadians soldiers had no battle experience and were met with resistance from the war-hardened Germans. By the end of the day, the 3rd Canadian Infantry Division and the 2nd Canadian Armoured Bridge had advanced further than any other Allied force. Sadly, 359 Canadian soldiers perished in this battle for freedom. It has been 76 years since D-day. To this day, Canadian flags still fly proudly on the soil liberated by these young men. On this solemn anniversary, may we continue to keep the faith with those who came before us; may we dutifully pass the torch to those who follow; and may we always fly the Canadian flag with pride. Lest We Forget.

The Poppy Campaign has started in Cochrane. The Poppy Campaign is very much a local initiative, conducted by Legion Branches in cities, towns and communities across the country. Donations collected in Cochrane during the Poppy Campaign are held in Trust at our Cochrane Branch to directly support Veterans and their families within our community and to help ensure Canadians ‘never forget’. To all the businesses who allowed us to place a Poppy Box in your establishment, we very... much appreciate it. To all the businesses who refuse to allow a box, we are disappointed but hope you change your mind next year. And to everyone who donates to the Poppy Campaign, we can't thank you enough for supporting our Veterans.. See more
