    In 2010, The Memory Project interviewed John H. Hamilton, a veteran of the Second World War. The following recording (and transcript) is an excerpt from this interview. From 1942 to 1946, Hamilton served as a rifleman, and eventually a corporal, with the Royal Winnipeg Rifles in the 3rd Canadian Infantry Division. Born in Brandon, Manitoba, on 22 August 1922, Hamilton enlisted in the Canadian army at the age of 20. He was one of the first wave of Canadians to assault Juno Beach on D-Day, and also participated in the Battle at Carpiquet Airport. In this testimony, Hamilton describes his experience at Juno Beach, his resulting injury and the later efforts to save his damaged eye. He also discusses the sabotage of German artillery shells by Czech munitions workers. Hamilton died on 29 July 2017 in Brandon, Manitoba.
