COMMENTATOR SHORTLY AFTER DiEPPE RAID SHOWS CANADIANS ACQUITTED SELVES WELL AM broadcasting now about the Dieppe raid. At a time when deâ€" tails are just becoming available, I would like to say this to you in Canada. We have suffered heavy but never have I seen men die more bravely or fight with such great heart as our Canadian troops. The word Dieppe may rank with VunyRflgelnouMnMour hats are off to the Royal Canadian Army Medical Corps, the South Saskatchewan Regiment, the the Queen‘s Own Cameron Highâ€" landers of ‘Winnipeg, the Royal Regiment from Toronto, the Essex Scottish from Windsor, the Royal Hamilton Light Infantry, and the Fusiliers de Montreal. A lot of these men will never reâ€" turn to Canada, and more wil} not return until after the war if the prisoners is correct. And added to the above are the officers and men of the Calgary Tanks whose story is one of the greatest that can be told _ This was a combined operation, and I have spoken abovi the Army playing an equal _n_ut_‘ml our troops, with the A‘r Force, the Marines, the Commuandos and the Navy. J am trying to find out now what percentage of the Air Force was Canadian becavse I feel sure it wasâ€"a great percentage. At least nine aircraft fell to Canadian guns and smany more were damagâ€" ed. What a marvellous job they dia in the face of intense fire from shore and ackâ€"ac.: batteries. Our losses have not been susâ€" tained without reason. We have learned a most valuable lesson which may enable us to free the continent of Europe and end the operates and how best to attack. action. We are going to do whal we came over to doâ€"get a crack at Jerrty." And then he told them the nature of the operation ard what was expec.en ~* each man, There were uo heroics, no delighted yells of whoopee. ‘The men were quist and asked questions, It struck me that the questions were those that a general might «k when being told of an operation for the fArst time. What were the coast defences likely to be? What alrcraft protection would they get?

I had a chat with the officer commanding our particular troop of tanmks, and he told me about the hard work that had been put in for weeks to get them ready for this action. He was confident in them and in his men to whom he said the credit must go. quote from the notes I took as we went alongâ€"some written in the darkness, and some written unuer heavy gunâ€"fire ao they «ie nOw smeared and dirty from the cordâ€" ite.

"That these men are abiae to perform most terrible tortures, is perfectly true," wrote Professor Max Muller, one of the greatest modern authori« ties on the religions of the Orient, philology, etc. Other authorities tell us that mahatmas are initiates who have proved their courage and purity by passing through sundry tests and trials.
