Good find woot
My grandpa was in the Korean war, he was wounded in both legs. He never talked much of the war, as it is understandable. I'm not sure his regiment, I know my family lived in Saskachewan at the time.

Looks like Lee-Enfields and a Sten. Is that correct for Korea?

When did Canada switch off the Enfield, and too what?

btw Love the Enfield.

All Hail The Mighty Garand,
but I love the Enfield too.

Leafs were in town the other night, pretty good showing of their fans too.
