This episode’s guest is WO2 Stan Egerton who served with the Toronto Scottish Regiment during World War 2. Stan is the Toronto Scottish Regiment’s version of Saving Private Ryan because he was eager to serve with his two brothers; George and Frank.
Stan lost his brothers in the second world war, and yet he speaks about them like he saw them only last week. Another version of Stan’s story can be found at Vimeo.
