We honour the more than one million Canadians and Newfoundlanders who served in the Second World War, and the more than 45,000 of them who gave their lives. Their bravery and sacrifice have allowed us to lead the lives we do today, in a country strong and free. War transformed not only those who fought on the front lines, but also those who supported them on the home front. Although a long awaited peace lay ahead, there were many changes to the faces that returned, and in those who greeted them.
