                     picture I have. All the other got lost.  | Allan got a new
                     bike. Only had  it a few days and it got stolen,  Allan searched everywhere and found  it at another street behind a house. 
 
 
 | Allan always wanted
                     to be in  the
                     army, and here he is  at Cornwallis, studying as hard as   can be.  Never gave  up
                     but  was
                     very lonely at times | Allan practicing
                     and more practising, and of course studying. Pressing his own clothes and shining shoes  | The day arrived
                     for the final parade and getting all dressed up  |

                     I was so proud of him. He was not allowed to smile on parade but he did when he saw me  | The war memorial | While in Israel
