Repatriation of Three Soldiers Today at CFB Trenton

Posted on Tuesday, December 30th, 2008

A repatriation ceremony will be held this afternoon at C-F-B Trenton at 2o’clock today for three Canadian soldiers, returning home in flag-draped coffins aboard military planes from Afghanistan.

Private Michael Freeman, Sergeant Gregory Kruse and Warrant Officer Gaetan Roberge were killed on the weekend in two separate roadside bombings — the same fate that has met six other soldiers in just December alone.

In fact, the U-S ambassador to Afghanistan says the number of roadside bombs has doubled, from one-thousand in 2007 to roughly two-thousand this year.
